All equity focus areas

Equity focus areas are Census tracts that represent communities where the rate of people of color (POC) or people with limited English proficiency (LEP) is greater than the regional average, or people with low income, i.e., incomes equal to or less than 200% of the Federal Poverty Level (LI). Additionally the density (persons per acre) of one or more of these populations must be double the regional average. The original development of the equity focus areas occurred in conjunction with the 2018 Regional Transportation Plan and were informed through discussions of the transportation equity work group, regional advisory committees (TPAC, MTAC, JPACT, and MPAC), four Regional Leadership Forums, and direction from Metro Council. The equity focus areas here are based on data from the American Community Survey 2017 5-year estimates. We include census tracts outside the Metro boundary. However, only census tracts inside the Metro jurisdictional boundary were used when determining criteria to qualify a census tract as an equity focus area. Tract-level compilation and aggregation of population estimates, including sets of attributes related to sex, age, race/ethnicity, language, income, and educational attainment. Estimates are accompanied by margins of error. Aggregate estimates are accompanied by recalculated margins of error. Geometry source: 2010 Census.

Required dataset for Snapshot: The journey to school across Greater Portland公平重点区域（Equity focus areas）指的是满足以下任一条件的普查街区（Census tracts）所代表的社区：有色人种（People of Color, POC）占比或英语能力有限人群（Limited English Proficiency, LEP）占比高于区域平均水平，或是低收入人群（即收入等于或低于联邦贫困线（Federal Poverty Level）200%的群体，Low Income, LI）占比达标。此外，上述任一群体的人口密度（每英亩人数）须达到区域平均水平的两倍。公平重点区域的初始编制工作与2018年区域交通计划同步开展，其制定依据包括交通公平工作组、区域咨询委员会（TPAC、MTAC、JPACT及MPAC）、四次区域领导力论坛的研讨成果，以及大都会议会（Metro Council）的指导方向。本次所用的公平重点区域数据基于2017年美国社区调查（American Community Survey, ACS）5年估算数据。本数据集涵盖大都会边界以外的普查街区，但在判定普查街区是否符合公平重点区域资格标准时，仅使用了大都会管辖范围内的普查街区数据。本数据集包含普查街区层面的人口估算值的整理与汇总数据，涵盖性别、年龄、种族/族裔、语言、收入及教育程度等多类属性字段。所有原始估算值均附带误差范围，汇总估算值则附带重新计算后的误差范围。地理空间数据源：2010年人口普查；属性数据源：2013-2017年美国社区调查5年估算数据，涉及表格B01001、B03002、B06001、B06007、B06009、B16004、C16001及C17002。本数据集为「快照（Snapshot）：大波特兰地区上下学出行」项目的必填数据集。
