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
Household income
$79,866 tract average vs. $63,984 citywide (+25%)
A 25% 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
$964 tract average vs. $1,125 citywide (-14%)
The tract average runs 14% below the citywide median. That modest difference shows why the tract table can refine a city-level starting point.
