The Sherwood-Audubon Area in Jackson, Mississippi, has undergone significant demographic changes from 2013 to 2022. In 2013, the area was categorized as having Moderate Diversity with a white majority of 84% and a black minority of 13%. By 2022, it transitioned to Low Diversity, with the white population increasing to 96% and other racial groups decreasing significantly. The black population declined from 13% in 2013 to 1% in 2022. The Hispanic population briefly increased to 7-8% between 2017 and 2020 before dropping to 2% in 2022.

The demographic shifts correlate with changes in median income. As the neighborhood became less diverse, there was a general upward trend in median income, with some fluctuations. The median income rose from $116,238 in 2013 to $108,806 in 2022, peaking at $123,814 in 2014. This suggests that as the neighborhood became more homogeneous, it also became slightly more affluent. The population decreased from 3,032 in 2013 to 2,295 in 2022, potentially indicating changing household compositions or housing market dynamics.

The Sherwood-Audubon Area's demographic evolution contrasts with national trends, which generally show increasing diversity in urban and suburban areas. The neighborhood has become less diverse over time, while many U.S. cities are experiencing growth in minority populations. The area maintains a high median income despite population decrease, suggesting it remains a desirable location within Jackson. This could indicate broader trends in urban areas where certain neighborhoods become increasingly exclusive.
