How We Determined The Wealthiest Neighborhoods In Syracuse For 2023
Every city has its best neighborhoods — where everyone wants to live — and the worst neighborhoods — where no one wants to live. And then you have the wealthiest neighborhoods, where no one can afford to live.
And by no one, we mean you because there’s always someone richer than you.
How do you quantify richer than you? We looked at one simple criterion:
Which neighborhoods have the highest median income?
Using Saturday Night Science, we researched income data from the Census and BLS for every neighborhood in Syracuse.
We ranked every neighborhood in Syracuse by median income from highest to lowest. The neighborhood with the highest median income, Sedgewick, was named the wealthiest neighborhood in Syracuse.
The poorest neighborhood? That would be University Hill.
We updated this article for 2023. This is our tenth time ranking the most affluent neighborhoods to live in Syracuse.
