The Census tops out at $3,500+ for rent, $250,000+ for household income and $2,000,000+ for home value; it doesn't publish exact figures above those. Two capped values can't be compared, so neither is marked better.
* Rate of the agency that polices Alamo (the city has no police department of its own), so it isn’t scored.
