Sorted by median household income by default; click any column header to re-sort. Figures come from the 2017-2021 ACS 5-year Selected Population Tables, which pool five years of survey responses to cover smaller communities the annual survey cannot. The Census publishes a state only when the group's population there clears the survey's reporting threshold, so smaller states are absent by design.

Sorted by median household income by default; click any column header to re-sort. Figures come from the 2017-2021 ACS 5-year Selected Population Tables, which pool five years of survey responses to cover smaller communities the annual survey cannot. The Census publishes a citie only when the group's population there clears the survey's reporting threshold, so smaller cities are absent by design.
