I was wondering how much difference of wealth or income there was between Tokyo's 23 wards. I found this table listing the average annual salary in each ward. The data is from 2013, so the incomes are higher now (around 12 million for Minato-ku) but the ranking remains more or less the same.

Not that poor Maciamo deserves that, but are you referring to the preposition "of"? When juggling multiple languages, picking the right preposition is always challenging.

I wouldn't dream of criticising another member's writing! I was referring to the table itself.
 
the table itself
The change in cell size/proportion from row 7 to 8? (picky, picky...! )
I'd say that was a formatting/layout thing, not something a proofreader should be responsible for. The line that borders/divides those rows looks slightly heavier, as it does between rows 15 and 16 (and the rightmost cells do jump a couple few points over there). But this stuff could be an artifact/trace from the original, and how it may have been copy-pasted together?

I'd be honoured if you corrected my English.

I reformatted the table. The copy and paste resulted in three different tables with different cell widths.
 
Take a look at rows 12 and 13.

By the way, I wasn't being critical. I was just illustrating one thing I have to check for as a proofreader. I also don't mercilessly look at posts for errors - it's just that I live in Nerima-ku, so it caught my eye.

You are right. 12 and 13 are inverted. I actually just copied and pasted the table from another site.
