Averaging of "similar data" in vector

Hi. I have a vector x as below. There are clearly "groups" of data. I want to find the average of each group
This was my attempt, but I've come to a halt: Not sure what to do next.
D=unique(double(x))
F=diff(D)
F1=F;
F1(F1<20)=[]
idx=find(F1==F)
x =
72×1 uint16 column vector

If the blocks are identified by having a maximum distance thresh from the lowest to the highest element:
% UNTESTED
n = length(x);
thresh = 20
group = zeros(size(x));
lim = x(1) + thresh;
index = 1;
for k = 1:n
if x(k) > lim
index = index + 1;
lim = x(k) + thresh;
end
group(k) = index;
end
Y = splitapply(@mean, x, group); % Needs Matlab >= 2015b
