Per resident: 2022: $2,876 · 2024: $3,370. Per resident it went from $2,876 to $3,370 (up 17%), partly because the Census population behind it changed from 6,620 to 6,312.
Building projects, interest and enterprises (hospital, utilities) are left out, so a big construction year doesn’t read as growth.
