About these numbers
Payments can reflect sales from two or more months earlier, reporting adjustments and tax-rate changes. Increases are not necessarily economic growth. Comparisons use the same period last year, not the previous month. Calendar-year totals are separate from the city’s fiscal-year budget. Amounts are rounded to whole dollars. Percentages are unavailable when the prior amount is zero or negative, or either amount is missing.
