Equity Index 2024 (Tacoma) - Data

The Equity Index is an interactive tool visually highlighting disparities in Tacoma. The 2024 iteration uses 29 data points sorted into 5 determinant categories (Accessibility, Livability, Education, Economy, and Environmental Health) to determine where community members cannot access services or where services do not meet community needs. It is one of the primary tools that City staff, partners, and other decision-makers use to help ensure they make data-informed decisions to improve access to opportunities for all community members. Tacoma's original 2018 Equity Index was generated by The Kirwan Institute for the Study of Race & Ethnicity for Tacoma's Office of Equity and Human Rights. Please note that the 2018 & 2020 versions of the Equity Index are based on 2010 US Census block groups. The 2022 and 2024 versions are based on 2020 US Census block groups. Census block groups have been clipped to the Puget Sound shoreline. Please read the complete metadata: Tacoma Equity Index 2024 Metadata.
