Didn't realize Austin was that much higher than Houston and Dallas.
Whats even more appaling are the gaps between Seattle, San jose, Austin, and San Diego. The latter has a $18k a year gap and this is just between #2 and #3.

Silicon Valley pays the big bucks! It is an outlier to everywhere else.
Clarification, but I’m assuming most people realize that this list is generated via median income for city residents, not by MSA. MSA income would be vastly different for many cities.

It became very clear when I saw Boston.
Yup, this list is of the 25 most populous *cities*, NOT "major metro areas".

Yes, Philadelphia (city) is embarrassingly low, but the metro area stabilizes the income rates due to the wealthy counties surrounding Philadelphia.
I believe Philadelphia is the most polarizing example of economics between the city and its suburbs.
This is very interesting. People keep saying that Denver is overpriced because wages haven’t kept up with the housing costs. While that may be true, I was shocked to see that Denver has the 8th highest median income in the country - ahead of places like New York, Chicago, and LA.
