Where the tract view differs from the citywide view

How these gaps are calculated

These comparisons use the average of the tract medians listed on this page and the ACS citywide median. They are two different geographic summaries, so the gap is a reading aid rather than an estimate of a typical household.

Largest observed gap

Household income

$86,673 tract average vs. $72,077 citywide (+20%)

A 20% premium over the citywide median makes this one of the clearer local contrasts on the page. The row-level values show whether it is broad or driven by a few tracts.

Comparison 2

Home value

$274,829 tract average vs. $255,700 citywide (+7%)

The tract average runs 7% above the citywide median, a modest separation worth checking against the individual rows before drawing a local conclusion.

Comparison 3

Monthly rent

$1,367 tract average vs. $1,467 citywide (-7%)

The tract average runs 7% below the citywide median. That modest difference shows why the tract table can refine a city-level starting point.
