Find info on your city

This is a cool site that can give you information on your city. Although the info is somewhat dated (2000 mostly) it is still interesting to compare it to other cities. Salinas has a very interesting division of races with 64% hispanic and only 24% white HAHA That was fun growing up in :P. Then San Jose is sad because the median income is around $70,000 while the average house is around $394,000!!!! OUCH! Sorry Sheri :(
