U.S. state-level area profile summary

Population, city coverage and averaged ACS housing and income figures for 51 states and territories, aggregated from 4,640 city area profiles.

51 records

Download CSV Download JSON Primary source

Fields

state_name State name
state_code Two-letter USPS state code
city_count Cities with an area profile in this state
total_population Summed ACS population across those cities
avg_median_household_income Unweighted mean of the cities’ ACS median household income
avg_median_home_value Unweighted mean of the cities’ ACS median home value

Reading the averages: the two averaged columns are unweighted means of city medians, not state medians. A state with many small cities weights each of them equally with its largest, so use them to compare states on the same basis, not as a population-weighted statistic.
