South San Francisco Neighborhoods Mapped by Wealth

A new website shows the median income of neighborhoods in South San Francisco.

San Mateo County ranks third of all California counties in median household income, and South San Francisco plays an interesting part in that.

Rich Blocks, Poor Blocks, a website that compiles American Community Survey data, has broken down every city in America by neighborhood and listed them all by average household income, and the results are quite interesting.

The site separates South San Francisco into about 10 sections — the 10 census tracts that divide the city.
