Title
Allegheny County Community Need Index (used in report) [Pennsylvania--Allegheny County] {2024}
Description
What is the Community Need Index? The Allegheny County Department of Human Services (DHS) conducts a Community Need Index (CNI) to identify specific areas that are in greater need, and face larger socioeconomic barriers, relative to others. The newest version of the CNI index ranks neighborhoods by need level by looking at: The percentage of families who live below the poverty lineThe percentage of unemployed or unattached malesThe percentage of those aged 25 and up without at least a Bachelor's degreeThe percentage of single parent householdsThe percentage of households without internet accessRate of homicide per 100,000 residentsRate of fatal overdoses per 100,000 residents The researchers used a census tract level to break up the region and assess needs. Census tracts are static, relatively small subdivisions of a county.(Seehttps://www.alleghenycountyanalytics.us/2024/05/31/allegheny-county-community-need-index/ for more information.)If viewing this description on the Western Pennsylvania Regional Data Center's open data portal (https://www.wprdc.org), this dataset is harvested on a weekly basis from Allegheny County's GIS data portal (https://openac.alcogis.opendata.arcgis.com/).
