Replication Data for: Database of the Ethnic Cultural Capital Characteristics of the Selected Case Study Counties Designated the Most Renewable in Each of the Eight Department of Commerce Economic Regions

Cultural capital according to Flora and Flora who developed the community capital framework I am employing in this research “determines what constitutes knowledge, how knowledge is to be achieved, and how knowledge is validated through the community power structure.” It includes the values, language, traditions, and worldviews of community members and reflects the way people know and interpret the world around them based on their cultural identities. Given the role of ethnicity and ethnic backgrounds in communities and community identity, I have utilized public statistics and data to create a picture of ethnicity in each of the eight case study counties as well as a comparison of them to the reported national ethnic profile.
