This map is part of a collection of 10 maps showing the location of Presbyterian Churches in relation to ethnic groups in the city of Chicago. The manuscript title is "The effects of subsity of Presbyterian Churches", by Henry Hughes Presler, and can be found at Mansueto Library, University of Chicago under the call number BX 10999. These maps have been outlined and vectorized as the originals, and points placed for location of churches as they were in the original. Call number for the maps: G4104.C6E1 1948.H6. Map Collection, Regenstein Library, University of Chicago. Drawn from Map 10 - Churches in Hinterland of Chicago Presbytery, 1940.

Selected variables from the most recent 5 year ACS Community Survey (Released 2023) aggregated by Ward. Additional years will be added as they become available. The underlying algorithm to create the dataset calculates the percent of a census tract that falls within the boundaries of a given ward. Given that census tracts and ward boundaries are not aligned, these figures should be considered an estimate. Total Population in this Dataset: 2,649,803 Total Population of Chicago reported by ACS 2023: 2,664,452 % Difference: %-0.55 There are different approaches in common use for displaying Hispanic or Latino population counts. In this dataset, following the approach taken by the Census Bureau, a person who identifies as Hispanic or Latino will also be counted in the race category with which they identify. However, again following the Census Bureau data, there is also a column for White Not Hispanic or Latino. The City of Chicago is actively soliciting community input on how best to represent race, ethnicity, and related concepts in its data and policy. Every dataset, including this one, has a "Contact dataset owner" link in the Actions menu. You can use it to offer any input you wish to share or to indicate if you would be interested in participating in live discussions the City may host.

Special Service Areas (SSA) boundaries in Chicago. The Special Service Area program is a mechanism used to fund expanded services and programs through a localized property tax levy within contiguous industrial, commercial and residential areas. The enhanced services and programs are in addition to services and programs currently provided through the city. SSA-funded projects could include, but are not limited to, security services, area marketing and advertising assistance, promotional activities such as parades and festivals, or any variety of small scale capital improvements that could be supported through a modest property tax levy. The data can be viewed on the Chicago Data Portal with a web browser.

In 1969, Clifford Shaw and Henry D. McKay released the second edition of Juvenile delinquency and urban areas. Their book conducts statistical analysis, without the benefit of computers, on the impact of various socio-economic issues on juvenile delinquency in Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston, Cleveland, Cincinnati, and Richmond. Chicago is the major focus of the research with analysis exploring three time periods within the city 1900 to 1906, 1917 to 1923, and 1927 to 1933. The suburbs are also analyzed from 1934 to 1966. The book contains a number of maps with the rates of delinquency and socio-economic factors divided into “square mile areas”. These are explained by Shaw and McKay (see page 29 footnote 5) as “the basic units the city of Chicago was divided for the presentation of rates of delinquency and other data”. The rate data from 1927 to 1938 is divided into140 ‘square mile areas’ (which in many cases are more than a square mile in area).
