American Community Survey rankings

Reading area census tract rankings

Compare 107 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.

About these rankings

These rankings compare mapped census tracts inside the Reading area atlas footprint; they are not rankings of every tract in the metropolitan area or state. Values are ACS survey estimates and may have sampling error. Check the interactive map and linked U.S. Census Bureau source for important decisions.
