Housing as a percent of income?

Finance experts say that your mortgage should ideally be 30% of total income. One might assume that since you can only make a mortgage payment with NET income (not gross), that they mean 30% of NET income (after-taxes). Is this correct? And is it just the mortgage or “Housing” (which would include property taxes and homeowners insurance?
