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.
Does anyone have any suggestions or solutions?
Thanks.
