Note:  The information in this feature is obtained from sources we believe to be reliable. But users should realize that errors will occur in the gathering of nearly 20,000 data points.

Unless otherwise noted, figures are given for the total metropolitan area.

Real estate data (median home price, annual property tax, and home appreciation) refer to the primary municipality only, not the overall metropolitan area.

Average state taxes as a percentage of income applies to all forms of taxation for the entire state. For metropolitan areas that cover more than one state, the figure for theprimary city's state is used.

Unemployment Rates for metropolitan areas are not seasonally adjusted. Rates shown are a percentage of the labor force, not a percentage of the total population.
