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.
$60,025 tract average vs. $48,302 citywide (+24%)
A 24% 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.
$927 tract average vs. $989 citywide (-6%)
The tract average runs 6% below the citywide median. That modest difference shows why the tract table can refine a city-level starting point.
$158,040 tract average vs. $152,900 citywide (+3%)
The listed-tract figure sits within 3% of the citywide median. Treat this as broad agreement, not proof that every block has the same conditions.
