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

Monthly rent

$1,324 tract average vs. $1,007 citywide (+31%)

The listed tracts average 31% above the citywide median, the page's strongest warning that one municipal figure can hide a sharply different tract picture.

Comparison 2

Household income

$65,620 tract average vs. $55,339 citywide (+19%)

A 19% 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

Home value

$351,342 tract average vs. $296,400 citywide (+19%)

A 19% 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.
