The demographic shifts in Capitol View correlate with economic changes. The median income increased from $34,608 in 2013 to $56,649 in 2022, a 63.7% increase over nine years. This rise coincides with the shift towards a more diverse racial composition and the increase in the White population percentage.

The population grew from 3,597 in 2013 to 4,843 in 2022, a 34.6% increase. This population growth, coupled with the rising median income, suggests gentrification processes may be occurring in Capitol View. The influx of higher-income residents appears to be changing the neighborhood's socio-economic landscape.

The changes observed in Capitol View reflect broader trends seen in many urban areas across the United States. Gentrification and urban renewal often lead to demographic shifts, with increases in White and higher-income populations in previously predominantly minority neighborhoods. The rise in diversity aligns with national trends of increasing racial and ethnic diversity in urban areas.

The rapid increase in median income (63.7% over nine years) outpaces the national average and suggests a strong gentrification process in Capitol View. This could be attributed to its proximity to the State Capitol and recent redevelopment efforts, making it an attractive location for young professionals and higher-income residents.

The transition from a Black Majority to a White Plurality neighborhood, while increasing overall diversity, raises questions about displacement and affordability for long-term residents. These changes highlight the interplay between urban development, demographic shifts, and economic growth in American cities.
