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.
Comparison 2
Home value
$100,262 tract average vs. $157,200 citywide (-36%)
The listed tracts average 36% below the citywide median, a large separation that makes the tract rows more informative than the citywide figure alone.
Comparison 3
Monthly rent
$777 tract average vs. $984 citywide (-21%)
A 21% discount to the citywide median is a material local contrast. Read the individual tract values before treating that gap as typical across the city.
