Census ACS Data Update

In staging, once ACS Census updates are complete, users will see the following in the downloadable DAC community file and interactive map


Expected Outcomes

Census tracts will now include scores reflecting various burdens, based on ACS and Decennial Census data, enabling users to identify DACs (Disadvantaged Communities) in both the map and downloadable files. This includes:

  • Low Income: High percentages of low-income residents.
  • Lead paint: Homes with potential of lead exposure (≥ 90th percentile).
  • Educational Attainment: Less than 10% of residents with a high school diploma.
  • Linguistic Isolation: High levels of non-English-speaking households (≥ 90th percentile).
  • Unemployment: Elevated unemployment rates (≥ 90th percentile).
  • Low Median Income: Low median income (≥ 90th percentile).
  • Poverty: Significant percentages of residents below the poverty line (≥ 90th percentile).

Map and Download Data (No Burden Scoring)

  • Race/Ethnicity Breakdown: Displays racial and ethnic composition for each census tract.
  • Age Breakdown: Provides distribution across age groups, available only for stateside tracts, offering insights into population structure.
  • Population Counts: Total population for additional context on community size.
