Chess Rating 977 Blitz above average? - Chess Forums

I have a blitz rating currently at 977 and it is in the 52.7% percentile this means I am above average correct? The reason I ask is I would assume average rating (50%) would be at least 100 points higher. Isn’t the starting ranking for most official tournaments 1200 (USCF for example)
