- 2025 House financial disclosure, lowest value of each band, summed. Official report ↗
460% of the NY-8 median
Median household income, NY-8 $66,089
Hakeem S. Jeffries, reported assets (low end) $305,033
The income bar shows the median as a share of the larger of the two figures, with a 3px minimum width so it stays visible. The assets bar has its own scale, from $1 at the left to $20 million at the right, and follows the low end of the range. It fills completely when the top of the range is over $20 million. Its color, and the color of the percentage above, runs from green on the left to red on the right.
Reported assets are what the disclosure form lists, in value bands, before debts and not counting a primary home. The median is one year's household income. They measure different things.
