Definition

Median household income.  The median income is the dollar amount that divides the income distribution into two equal groups, half with income above the median, half with income below it. A household includes all the persons who occupy a housing unit as their usual place of residence. A household may be a single family, one person living alone, two or more families living together, or any other group of related or unrelated persons who share living arrangements.

Data Source

U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey (ACS), Table S1903, 5-year estimates. 

Notes

Each year represents survey data collected over the course of five years; thus, 2022 estimates are derived from surveys collected between 2018-2022.  The Census Bureau recommends using non-overlapping periods for trend analysis (i.e. compare 2013-2017 with 2018-2022).
