Bronx neighborhood income (New York, Chester, Eden: neighborhoods, university, locations)

[DoubleXAs]

I have a question.

On NY daily news website they have a local section, in which you can read local news for any of the boroughs and find information on certain neighborhoods. Well, I checked out some neighborhoods and found this:

University Heights : $29,248

Mt Eden: $25,199

Mt Hope: $27,241

Highbridge: $25,907

But Morris Heights is $22,994

Where do they get these numbers from? And why is UH so high? In fact, the first 4 neighborhoods look way too high in income. I guess the number from UH may incude the neighborhood all the way up to Kingsbridge, and includes the Fordham Oval Coops. But still. These are all border neighborhoods to Morris Heights, and all are significantly higher in income. Why these discrepancies? Anybody know how they calculate these number? I would think that all of the above would be similar income.

Here is the page:

In 2008 that's an extremely low household-income, i'm guessing that is household income, which is usually the stat that gets used. So yeah that's pretty freaking low. For all those neighborhoods, all low.

For comparison sake, the P'Chester median was in the low 40's.
