SOCDS Census Data: Output for Evanston city,IL

The Census does not provide median income or income percentile data for CBSAs or CBSA suburbs. The CBSA and CBSA suburban data presented below are derived from detailed rounded income distributions from the Census Bureau. SOCDS presents CBSA principal and suburban place income data derived in this manner for cities where detailed income distributions were available in order to ensure the comparability of data across CBSA, place and CBSA suburb. Published income data is presented for smaller cities where detailed income data were not available.

Due to a lack of sufficiently detailed income distribution data to accurately estimate medians and percentile breaks, 2005 and 2006 income percentiles and suburban median incomes are not provided.
