A typical post picks up 3.0K interactions against 2.7M followers, an engagement rate of 0.111%. Measured over 89 original posts, its engagement rate beats 72% of 20,444 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 119K times each, and 2.49% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 4.46% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 4.2 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on almost every day in the window. Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 89 posts sampled, 69% carry an image or video and 51% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 135K interactions, about 46x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani's engagement rate beats 72% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.

On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 73% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Where this sits in the catalog

At 0.111%, Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani sits above the 25th percentile of the 204,694 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.024% to 0.143%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 204,694 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,880 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 15:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Engagement by hour posted, UTCTwenty-four bars, one per UTC hour. Each bar shows how posts published in that hour compare with their own authors' median engagement. Bars above the centre line ran higher than the median, bars below ran lower. A marker flags Busiest hour: 15:00 UTC.

Formats this account uses

Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.

This account's posting mix compared with catalog-wide effects
FormatThis accountCatalog effect95% intervalAccounts behind it
Image or video69% of posts+111%+108% to +115%34K
Outbound link51% of posts-41%-42% to -40%32K
Typical length-+15%+14% to +16%32K
  • 69% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
  • 51% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts, so a large share of this account's output sits in the weakest bucket we measure.
  • Its average post runs 303 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 15% above the same accounts' other posts.

These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

    For years, New Yorkers have demanded access to City records about the lasting health impacts of the horrific September 11th attacks. For years, they have been denied and ignored. That ends today. My administration is launching a free online portal for 9/11-related documents and releasing the first 170,000 pages today — available now at https://t.co/YnJTIIZ3lt. These records prove what families and first responders have long known: City government knew the conditions around Ground Zero were dangerous — yet lied to New Yorkers. Thousands pay the price for this. They bear the effects of that day every time they struggle to breathe or visit the doctor. More people have died from 9/11-related illnesses than were killed on the day itself. As we mark twenty five years since September 11th, our vow to Never Forget will not waver. We will remember — and honor — those we have lost with the accountability and honesty they deserve.

    Mexico’s fight for independence is the triumph of a people determined to shape their own future. Today, I was proud to be the first New York City Mayor to march in Sunset Park’s Mexican Independence Day Parade alongside a community that has fostered cultural pride across generations. Mexican New Yorkers are at the heart of our city and its fight for a better future.

    Thousands of New Yorkers woke yesterday to devastating news from home. Flooding along the Nepal-Tibet border has taken hundreds of lives, and the search for those still missing continues. To our Nepali and Tibetan neighbors: this city knows what it means to grieve a place you left and still call home. You are not carrying this alone. New York City stands with you.

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 3.0K interactions against 2.7M followers, an engagement rate of 0.111%. Measured over 89 original posts, its engagement rate beats 72% of 20,444 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 119K times each, and 2.49% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 4.46% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 4.2 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on almost every day in the window. Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 89 posts sampled, 69% carry an image or video and 51% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 135K interactions, about 46x its own typical post.

What is Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani's engagement rate on X?
Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani (@NYCMayor) has an engagement rate of 0.111%, based on the median interactions across 89 original posts from the last 30 days against 2,662,118 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.111%, Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani sits above the 25th percentile of the 204,694 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
Does @NYCMayor have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 72% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
When does @NYCMayor post?
Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day, at roughly 4.17 posts per day across the measured window.
