The stability in population and gradual increase in median income, coupled with the consistent racial composition, suggest a neighborhood that has maintained its character while experiencing some economic improvement. This demographic stability may have influenced the lack of new LIHTC projects in the past decade, as the existing affordable housing stock may have been sufficient to meet the neighborhood's needs.
