How we measured this

The Census Bureau asks this by block group. We split each block group by the share of its land in each neighborhood.

What would change the answer

These are five-year survey estimates, so treat small differences as ties. Smaller answers fold into an other group on our Census read, so a neighborhood with few can show none.
