Which city on the West Coast has the strongest Black presence

[18Montclair]

This is a great thread idea imo.

2 Criteria:
1. Median Black Family Income, $100,000+
2. Black Population(2,000+)


San Francisco-Oakland-Berkeley Metro Area: 17 places
Brentwood, CA $168,607(7,108)
Concord, CA $116,833(7,294)
Dublin, CA $105,500(3,024)
East Palo Alto, CA $102,545(4,366)
El Cerrito, CA $110,123(2,154)
Fairview, CA $125,857(2,272)
Fremont, CA $113,714(8,707)
Hercules, CA $106,760(5,247)
Livermore, CA $174,886(2,359)
Newark, CA $121,146(2,058)
Novato, CA $106,329(2,704)
Oakley, CA $113,285(4,418)
Pinole, CA $114,559(2,852)
San Lorenzo, CA $118,313(2,298)
San Mateo, CA $125,083(3,843)
San Ramon, CA $179,205(3,282)
Union City, CA $103,516(4,344)

Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim Metro Area: 14 places
Azusa, CA $100,750(2,403)
Carson, CA $101,525(24,539)
Cerritos, CA $124,745(4,708)
Costa Mesa, CA $108,529(2,247)
Culver City, CA $134,332(4,508)
Diamond Bar, CA $124,079(2,543)
Huntington Beach, CA $103,019(5,021)
Irvine, CA $148,091(7,505)
Ladera Heights, CA $163,268(4,816)
Laguna Niguel, CA $108,839(2,315)
Mission Viejo, CA $121,103(2,017)
Redondo Beach, CA $110,972(4,098)
Santa Clarita, CA $108,259(12,993)
View Park-Windsor Hills, CA $121,912(9,463)

If we are going by Metro Divisions:
Oakland 14
Los Angeles 9
Orange County 5
San Francisco 2
San Rafael 1

The East Bay actually takes the top 3 spots out all of these places:

San Ramon $179,205(3,282)
Livermore $174,886(2,359)
Brentwood $168,607(7,108)
Ladera Heights $163,268(4,816)
Irvine $148,091(7,505)

Brentwood next to Antioch in the outer East Bay has a larger black population, AND a higher median black family income than Ladera Heights. That's interesting.

I voted Oakland

[SaintX]

Definitely LA and Oakland. They’re rightfully ahead in the poll. One that surprised me is Phoenix. There’s way more black people there than I expected.

Phoenix the city and metro area are only around 6% black, it's one of the least blackest cities and metro areas in America.
