Brainstorm metrics we want to surface for the website.

For each metric:

• Data source
• potential visualization/presentation

Data USA offers some good ideas.

• Median Household Income - Census, ACS 5YR Estimates - line graph (x - year, y - value)
• Avg. Salary (aggregate & by sex) - Census, ACS 5YR Estimates
• Avg. Employment and Wages by Sector - BLS, updated on a quarterly basis - line chart
• Employment by Industry (may need an alternate source depending on what's covered here, though this is updated monthly) - CA Employment Development Department, may repeat above data from BLS, which is arguably better - column chart/line chart
• Employment by Occupation - Census, ACS 5YR Estimates
• Employment by Industry - Census, ACS 5YR Estimates
• Unemployment Rate - BLS, updated monthly - line chart/bar chart
• Housing Costs (Home Value/Rent) - Census, ACS 5YR - value/line chart
• Median Home Value - Zillow, updated monthly, uses interested methodology, other sources are available but might b=not be updated as frequently - line chart
• Poverty Level - Census, ACS 5YR estimates, contains various cuts - line chart
