Metropolitan Council of the Twin Cities AreaPLEASE NOTE: This dataset has been replaced and can be found under "Equity Considerations for Place-Based Advocacy and Decisions in the Twin Cities Region." By itself, a focus on concentrated poverty tells an incomplete story about these neighborhoods and support a deficit-based narrative that stigmatizes these places and the people who live in them. For more background on this, see our StoryMap "Rethinking Areas of Concentrated Poverty" (https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/e61c8e0e54e24485b956601fdc80b63e).The new dataset provides more information about the root causes of concentrated poverty, also identifies Areas of Concentrated Affluence, and contains more information about housing and transportation to identify more specific needs of neighborhoods.The "Areas of Concentrated Poverty" dataset will be retired at the end of 2020.Shapefilehttps://gisdata.mn.gov/dataset/us-mn-state-metc-society-areas-of-concntrtd-pvrtyengMinnesota Geospatial CommonsPublicAreas of Concentrated Poverty: Twin Cities Metropolitan Area, MinnesotaWeb servicesAnoka County, MinnesotaCarver County, MinnesotaDakota County, MinnesotaHennepin County, MinnesotaRamsey County, MinnesotaScott County, MinnesotaWashington County, MinnesotaTwin Cities Metropolitan Area, MinnesotaMinnesota2020
