Median household income

▲ Higher is better Real improvement
Compared against How peers are chosen →

Household income rose about 35% between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from $47,318 to $63,668 (each survey's own dollars, not adjusted for inflation) - more than the combined survey margin (±$6,082). 30 of the 30 similar-size cities show a real change in the same direction. It started among the weakest third of similar-size cities, so some rebound is expected; still, the improvement is sustained and worth investigating.

Longer view: household income rose about 70% from 2014 to 2024 ($37,406 to $63,668).

Each tract is colored and ranked by its change from 2019 to 2024, between the same two survey periods as the card above, as a share of its own starting level: blue tracts rose, orange tracts fell. Tracts marked * moved less than their own survey margin, so their color is a direction, not a claim.
