ReplyThanks for your input. Let me briefly explain our reasoning for publishing the story.
Census data are made publicly available. Part of Patch's job is to report on social and economic trends affecting the towns we cover, and reporting on regional income levels seems consistent with this mission.
I'd argue that the privacy implications are minimal since we're not publicizing individual citizens' incomes.

ReplyWhen police find underage women involved in prostitution, they are treated as victims and not arrested. Yunke has told me that while Roseville Police have encountered some underage escorts, the vast majority of women they come across are 18 or older.
