Tallyrand, a neighborhood in Jacksonville, Florida, exhibits a demographic profile categorized as a "Black Majority" community. As of 2022, 67% of the population identifies as Black, maintaining a clear majority despite recent shifts. The neighborhood has experienced demographic changes over the past decade, coupled with fluctuations in median income. Tallyrand's proximity to the St. Johns River has historically influenced its development and economic activities.
Over the past decade, Tallyrand has undergone a transition in its racial composition. In 2013, the neighborhood had 85% Black population. By 2022, while still maintaining a "Black Majority," the community has shown signs of becoming more diverse. The Black population decreased from 85% in 2013 to 67% in 2022. The White population changed from 12% to 11% during this period. The Hispanic population grew from 0% to 10%. The "Two or More Races" category emerged, rising to 13% by 2022.
The median income in Tallyrand has shown an overall upward trend, with some fluctuations. In 2013, the median income was $24,230. By 2022, it had increased to $32,027, representing a 32% growth over the decade. The most significant increase occurred between 2019 and 2020, with a rise from $28,253 to $31,987. This economic improvement coincides with the diversification of the neighborhood's racial makeup.
Population figures have remained relatively stable, fluctuating between 414 and 541 residents over the decade. This stability in population, coupled with increasing diversity and rising incomes, suggests a gradual transformation of the neighborhood's socio-economic fabric.
The trend towards increasing diversity in Tallyrand aligns with broader national trends of growing multiracial and Hispanic populations in many urban areas. The rise in median income, while significant for the neighborhood, likely still places Tallyrand below the median income for Jacksonville or Florida as a whole, given its starting point. The stability in population numbers suggests that Tallyrand may not be experiencing the rapid growth seen in some other parts of Florida.
Tallyrand exemplifies a neighborhood in transition, moving from a highly homogeneous community to one that, while still categorized as "Black Majority," is showing signs of diversification. This demographic shift, coupled with modest economic gains, indicates a community in flux, potentially offering new opportunities and challenges for its residents as it continues to evolve.
