Adam,
I just checked, and I see what you mean. You need to know, however, that
the MOEs (margins of error, or sampling error) on individual income level
summaries -- e.g. $50,000 to $64,999 -- would be so high for individual
tracts that the data are really unusable. I recommend that you use median
income levels instead.

Good morning everyone. I need your help for a project
our MPO has
recently started. We are updating the HSTP and wanted to include income
levels in our plan. We are a small MPO and so far have found that nearly
all of the income data has been suppressed for our region. This includes
both block groups and tracts in the American Community Survey 2006 -2010.
I have found that numerous datasets have been suppressed. It’s frustrating
that MPOs are required to use Census data, but in smaller MPO regions the
data is suppressed.****
