Should roommates split rent equally?
Equal splits are simpler but may not reflect income differences. An income-based split allocates costs proportionally to what each person earns, which many find fairer.
What is an income-based split?
Each person contributes to shared costs proportionally to their income as a share of total household income.
Should utilities be included?
Yes. Include all shared costs — rent, utilities, internet — for a complete shared housing cost picture.
Can couples use this calculator?
Yes. Enter both incomes and the total shared housing cost to see the 50/50 and income-based split options.
What if one person earns much more?
The income-based split will allocate a higher share to the higher earner. Whether this feels fair is a personal decision. The equal split option is always available as an alternative.
