1. American Community Survey 2019 - 2023, unless otherwise noted
2. Median values for certain aggregate regions (such as MSAs) may be estimated as the weighted averages of the median values from the composing counties
3. Census Population Estimate for 2023, annual average growth rate since 2013
4.  The Census's method for calculating median house values changed with the 2022 data set, so pre-2022 values are not directly comparable with later data.
