US EPA Environmental Justice Dataset (2000 Census) for Kentucky

<div style='text-align:Left;'><div><p><span>Data set for Region 4 based on block group data from the 2000 census. This data set extends beyond Region 4 boundaries, in case block groups within buffer distance are needed for analysis. The block groups are given the label "Low Income", "Minority", or "Low Income and Minority." The designation is assigned based on the following calculation: if the individual block group has a greater proportion of Low Income Residents/Total Residents than the STATE where the block group is, then the block group received the "Low Income"designation. Therefore, each state has a different proportion for assigning the EJ designation. A block group that has a greater proportion of Low Income and Minority residents than the state recieves only the designation "Low Income and Minority."</span></p><p>Link: <a target='_blank' href='https://ky.box.com/v/epa-env-justice-data-2000' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'>https://ky.box.com/v/epa-env-justice-data-2000</a></p></div></div>
