BRTD, you are like an inch away from me using this as unflattering signature quote fodder

Huh... I am actually really surprised that McCain carried any districts in Brooklyn.  He didn't even carry any in Pittsburgh (he lost one by a single vote).

Can someone explain?

Thanks, but even still.  I would expect McCain to poll well in those areas, but not win them.

I know they aren't exactly huge fans of the "schwarzers" there, but you would think if McCain could win there, he would have at least come close in an Upper Eastside District.

Really?  In this election, areas like those were practically complete antitheses of each other.

#69 is the upper upper west side - Manhattan Valley, Morningside Heights, Bloomingdale.

#52 is Brooklyn Heights, Boerum Hill, Bay Ridge, Carroll Gardens and Cobble Hill.

#66 is Greenwich Village, SoHo, East Village and Tribeca.

#67 is the upper west side, and...hell, this

#74 is east Manhattan, also kind of a weird district.

My best guess on Central Park was homeless people (18 of them), but the median household income there is $18,750.  I guess if the homeless people make that much money anywhere, it's in Manhattan.  Racial stats (9-8-1 black-white-other) also match, if you're going to make anything of a ridiculously tiny sample size.

My next guess was that it was people whose address was misfiled.  Say, they live at 391 Central Park West but their residence was mislabeled 390 Central Park West -- the postal worker figured out the error, and delivered it correctly, but the Census never knew about it.  Another possibility is that there's "address cheating."  For instance, there's a UPS Store at the even-numbered 100 Central Park West, which appears to be in a building on the odd-numbered (non-park) side.  That may be because addresses there are so dense they had to make due.  It could be that the Census didn't realize those addresses are actually on the other side of the street, and counted them in Central Park.

As for the JFK Airport...looks like there are a few hotels, which often have resident managers.  JFK reports 28 people, gender split, some kids, 27 white although 7 also multiracial.  12 households, 9 owner-occupied.  So, uh...who knows/cares.

Even though I live near it and I drive through it every day when I go to work, I have never been able to figure out where the people who live in Fort Snelling (which is basically the airport) actually live.

You could always map some Census thing it's in by block.
