There’s more to it than that. Notice that the high-value letters are on one side of the tracks, and the single-point letters are all on the other. Plus, the neighborhoods match the letter types.
Wow, good thing this looks like a nice, safe place, even the poor part of town. There are a lot of places in the world where that drunken R would’ve been rolled.
Another superior gag; this comic rarely fails to bring VERY funny cerebral humor to my newspaper (in this case, my computer — get WITH it, Seattle Times!). And yet I’m sure a great many folks walked away shaking their heads…

Looks like some of them live a hardscrabble life.
