Newton’s Notes

I thought this was an interesting story… The Census Bureau released its annual report on income and poverty Tuesday, and it turns out, Plano residents aren’t doing too bad! According to the report it’s the most affluent city in the nation.

The median salary in Plano is more than $84,000 per year. Second on the list was San Jose, which had an annual median income of about $77,000, but here’s the catch… in Plano, the median home price is $215,000, compared to $744,000 in San Jose.
