Social Vulnerability Map (Midterm)

The map was created to be shared within the Hudson County Place Vulnerability Instant App. Layers from the Hudson County Place Vulnerability Midterm Web Map were originally copied over and unneeded layers were deleted. The resulting map shows social vulnerability of Hudson County, NJ. Layers CDC's Social Vulnerability Index (SVI) - ATSDR's Geospatial Research, Analysis & Services Program (GRASP) has created a tool to help emergency response planners and public health officials identify and map the communities that will most likely need support before, during, and after a hazardous event. The Social Vulnerability Index (SVI) uses U.S. Census data to determine the social vulnerability of every census tract. The SVI ranks each census tract on 15 social factors, including poverty, lack of vehicle access, and crowded housing, and groups them into four related themes.
