The average population of the block groups was 1,068 people, this number was then used to set a threshold of 1,050 people. Another select by attribute (Poptotal >= 1050) was applied to the block groups that had more than 1,050 people in them (see figure 4). The last feature that was examined was the average income of the block groups. The average income in Duluth, MN is $61,690. This number was rounded up to $61,700 as a restraint for another select by attribute. This time the select by attribute (income <= 61700) was looking at block groups with incomes of less than average of $61,700 (see figure 5). The source for all of these factors was the UMD Geography Analysis Center. For a visual walk through of these methods, see the flow chart below in figure
