What the point cloud leaves hidden
Where do predicted and observed income ranks diverge?
- Observation
- Binned mean (supplied)
Each dot is one supplied observation. The accent joins mean observed ranks in 12 equal-width predicted-rank bins; empty bins are omitted. It is a descriptive summary, not a new fitted model. Rank is a percentile position, not a percentage of people.

Reading notes
The source provides rounded points and binned means without observation identifiers or model diagnostics. The display cannot establish out-of-sample predictive accuracy.
Source & method
Opportunity Atlas × ACS · captured beat-the-model chart aggregates
Unchanged Opportunity Atlas × ACS point cloud and supplied means. Source builder uses 12 equal-width predicted-rank bins over [25,62], clamps outliers into end bins, omits empty bins and rounds means to one decimal.
