New Orleans area census tract rankings

Compare 184 mapped census tracts on population, income, housing, education, origin and commuting. Every ranking uses U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey 2019–2023 five-year estimates.

Percentage and median rankings exclude tracts with fewer than 500 residents to reduce unstable small-area estimates. The map remains available for every tract.
