Distribution
How values are spread across the records that have one. Use it to check that the attribute tells records apart: when one value holds nearly everyone, it will not separate audiences much. The bars run in rank order, from the lowest value to the highest. The shading groups the bars into percentile bands.
Share by value
Share of postcodes with a known value in each band. The middle 50% falls between 844 and 1,589 dollars, shaded darkest.
P10 means 10% of postcodes have a value at or below this one, and P90 means 90% do. P25 and P75 bound the middle half. The median is the middle: half are below it, half above.
Median over time
944 dollars → 1,131 dollars across 4 collections, shaded between P25 and P75. Estimated from a 1% sample of postcodes.
