AVERAGE INCOMES IN THE RING OF CITIES*
(From the OC POST-- LINK)
Newport Beach.............................................$ 232,280.4
(Includes Newport Coast and Corona del Mar)
Irvine.............................................................$ 89,951.74
Huntington Beach.........................................$ 70,454.36
Costa Mesa....................................................$ 57, 172.93
Fountain Valley.............................................$ 53,434.75
Santa Ana.......................................................$ 47,312.87
If you were to lay these figures out on a spread sheet with other vital statistics from these six cities, you'd find that the lower ranking cities in income would also usually have the most crime, the worst school scores, the most gangs, the lowest home values, the most crime, the most illegal aliens, the lowest education levels.
Libs and lefties often misuse income statistics to try to prove that higher crime, lower school scores, etc. are a function of the lower incomes. This is false reasoning.
All the statistics, including incomes, are a function of the people in the community.
Yes, dear friends, when we discuss people and the statistics that indicate how they're doing, people really do matter. That may seem to be a harsh reality to some, but it's a fact.
WHAT IF COSTA MESA AND NEWPORT WERE MERGED INTO ONE CITY? The average income of such a city would be $ 144,726.71
*The OC POST is not clear whether these are individual incomes or household incomes.
