Not falling for it. No one is that unlucky. 😤

This finding is especially interesting given the fact that these two metrics are the ones most closely tied to household wealth.

Conversely, the poverty rate and homeownership rate differences between MIDL and MST_DIS neighborhoods are more moderate in comparison to the MST-DIS—FL_DIS relationship.

Going back to the distance calculations... the results show that the distance between the median household income and median home value numbers is comparatively greater in the case of the MIDL—MST_DIS relationship...

Unfortunately, the facts and figures indicate that FL_DIS neighborhoods are not only impoverished, but also suffer the negative impacts of being isolated from the larger metro and having a population base that lacks an ownership stake in the places they call home.
