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.
$1,114 tract average vs. $965 citywide (+15%)
A 15% 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.
$80,458 tract average vs. $84,417 citywide (-5%)
The tract average runs 5% below the citywide median. That modest difference shows why the tract table can refine a city-level starting point.
$201,833 tract average vs. $194,300 citywide (+4%)
The listed-tract figure sits within 4% of the citywide median. Treat this as broad agreement, not proof that every block has the same conditions.
