This is how far I got with this...I got stuck at DC which has 42 such towns in MD alone.
The data below is based on 2 Criteria from data.census.gov:
1. Median Black Family Income, 2020

Home Report Western Hemisphere Comprises Larger Share of New Immigrants
Western Hemisphere Comprises Larger Share of New Immigrants
Half of newcomers (2020 to 2022) are now from the Americas compared to one-third a decade ago
"The number and share of new immigrants from East Asia has declined significantly. In 2022, only 12 percent of newcomers came from the region, compared to 25 percent in 2014.
The number and share of new immigrants from the Indian subcontinent also fell, declining from 16 percent of newcomers in 2018 to only 11 percent in 2022."
This is really interesting to me. DC is superlative here, but only 2 are not part of a larger CSA.

Wheeling/Bellaire/Martins Ferry/Bridgeport (the four cities where 99 percent of the few blacks who live there) is at $97,000? There is no way. That area has very low median income to begin with and from the times I've been through there, the "black" parts (though statistically very white overall) are rough.

Correct! Wheeling, WV-OH should not be on the list. I goofed. Thank you for catching that!

That is interesting. McAllen overall is not wealthy AT ALL. From the 6 Texas metros with population 1M or above, I think it is the least wealthy. In fact from the 385 largest metro areas in the US McAllen is THE poorest.
The black population down there is also miniscule. I think it's the only major Texas city where the Asian population is twice as large as the AA population.
So just about every black person in McAllen must be wealthy if that data is correct. That's the thing with statistics and averages and things like median income. It doesn't give anywhere near the whole picture.
Median Income works for the Bay. That area is wealthy no matter how you look at it. I saw a ridiculous post this week about how Houston wages are low. You look at the list and McAllen is near the top, DFW is near the bottom and Houston is not listed at all. So a poster with little common sense would look at this median income data may draw conclusions such as:
1. McAllen must be THE spot for wealth blacks in Texas
2. Other Texas cities are no where as good.
Without the context of raw numbers statistics are VERY deceptive. Again median income works for the Bay because yall all billionaires, but for most other places you need context.
DFW and Houston for example are over 7 times as large as McAllen. DFW and Houston has over 80 times more black people than McAllen had people. There are over 1,200,000 black people in DFW or Houston compared to less than 20k in McAllen. So there are literally hundreds of thousands of black people in DFW and Houston making more than black people in McAllen so McAllen being second from the top of that list greatly lowers the significance of the data on that list imo.
This makes the median income data highly suspect. The overall median income in McAllen is $41k. The per capita income is less than 10k. So finding 10K black people in McAllen with a median income of $135k plus is HIGHLY suspect.
Can't trust statistics without context.
Edit: I looked it up. The McAllen metro is in Hidalgo County and has less than 5,000 black folks. The CSA adds another County but that County has negligible black folks. In fact the entire Rio Grande Valley has less than 10K black people. So there is an error in the stat

Ok, so here are the Urban areas and I did include races in combo. Here is how this will work.
-Hispanic isn't a race, so the Hispanic numbers will be pulled the same.
-The Asian and Black numbers below will include those that are "Asian/Black Alone" and "Asian/Black in Combination".
-The White numbers will only be those that are "White Alone".
The more I go through these numbers, the more I am convinced that the perceived losses of some minority groups from some metro areas is simply a redefining of what it means to be those groups not actually people losses.
Anywhere, here they are.
New York City - 19,182,900
White: 8,187,382 - 42.7%
Hispanic: 4,924,876 - 25.7%
Black: 3,771,008 - 19.7%
Asian: 2,532,350 - 13.2%
Los Angeles - 12,257,919
Hispanic: 5,780,948 - 47.2%
White: 3,117,090 - 25.4%
Asian: 2,405,379 - 19.6%
Black: 954,238 - 7.8%

^^ Crazy if MD, VA, and DC made up one "Chesapeake/Potomac" state it would be number #1 total in the US ahead of Texas, in about the land mass equivalent of Alabama:
