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

$66,800 tract average vs. $52,787 citywide (+27%)

A 27% 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

$156,082 tract average vs. $127,500 citywide (+22%)

A 22% 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 3

Monthly rent

$846 tract average vs. $947 citywide (-11%)

The tract average runs 11% below the citywide median. That modest difference shows why the tract table can refine a city-level starting point.
