What is the typical household income in your county?

Bars are sorted from highest to lowest and start at zero; each one's value is at its end. It opens on the top and bottom 10; use “Show all” or the search box for the rest. These are survey estimates: the thin lines and the ± figures show each one's margin of error, and the true value is likely (90% confidence) within that range. Where ranges overlap, the difference may not be real.
