Fun Facts


The Census Department released detailed Census 2000 data for New York today. Some facts about Manhattan (New York County):

  • Average Commute: 30.5 minutes
  • 81.5% of residents commute to work by public transportation or walking. I’d love to see the comparison with the rest of the country.
  • Median Rent: $796
  • Median household income: $47,030
