About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the Portland population over the last 20 plus years. It lists the population for each year, along with the year on year change in population, as well as the change in percentage terms for each year. The dataset can be utilized to understand the population change of Portland across the last two decades. For example, using this dataset, we can identify if the population is declining or increasing. If there is a change, when the population peaked, or if it is still growing and has not reached its peak. We can also compare the trend with the overall trend of United States population over the same period of time.

Key observations

In 2023, the population of Portland was 630,498, a 0.66% decrease year-by-year from 2022. Previously, in 2022, Portland population was 634,668, a decline of 1.32% compared to a population of 643,179 in 2021. Over the last 20 plus years, between 2000 and 2023, population of Portland increased by 100,601. In this period, the peak population was 654,378 in the year 2019. The numbers suggest that the population has already reached its peak and is showing a trend of decline. Source: U.S. Census Bureau Population Estimates Program (PEP).

The configuration of the districts was established by the Independent District Commission via a series of work sessions, trainings, and public hearings that occurred from February 15, 2023 to August 21,2023. The districts were drawn to be consistent with state and federal laws and were approved by the Independent District Commission on August 21, 2023. The Council District Boundaries were developed form the 2020 census blocks from the Census Bureau. Those geometries might not align with other features.

This data layer is an element of the Oregon GIS Framework. The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation.

Census tracts are small, relatively permanent statistical subdivisions of a county or equivalent entity, and were defined by local participants as part of the 2020 Census Participant Statistical Areas Program. The Census Bureau delineated the census tracts in situations where no local participant existed or where all the potential participants declined to participate. The primary purpose of census tracts is to provide a stable set of geographic units for the presentation of census data and comparison back to previous decennial censuses. Census tracts generally have a population size between 1,200 and 8,000 people, with an optimum size of 4,000 people. When first delineated, census tracts were designed to be homogeneous with respect to population characteristics, economic status, and living conditions. The spatial size of census tracts varies widely depending on the density of settlement. Physical changes in street patterns caused by highway construction, new development, and so forth, may require boundary revisions. In addition, census tracts occasionally are split due to population growth, or combined as a result of substantial population decline. Census tract boundaries generally follow visible and identifiable features. They may follow legal boundaries such as minor civil division (MCD) or incorporated place boundaries in some States and situations to allow for census tract-to-governmental unit relationships where the governmental boundaries tend to remain unchanged between censuses. State and county boundaries always are census tract boundaries in the standard census geographic hierarchy. In a few rare instances, a census tract may consist of noncontiguous areas. These noncontiguous areas may occur where the census tracts are coextensive with all or parts of legal entities that are themselves noncontiguous. For the 2010 Census and beyond, the census tract code range of 9400 through 9499 was enforced for census tracts that include a majority American Indian population according to Census 2000 data and/or their area was primarily covered by federally recognized American Indian reservations and/or off-reservation trust lands; the code range 9800 through 9899 was enforced for those census tracts that contained little or no population and represented a relatively large special land use area such as a National Park, military installation, or a business/industrial park; and the code range 9900 through 9998 was enforced for those census tracts that contained only water area, no land area.

This helps account for how different household sizes experience living with different incomes.Renter households were replaced with households that are housing cost-burdened (pay 30%+ on housing costs). This acknowledges that homeowners who pay a high percentage of their income on housing can be vulnerable to displacement as well.A new variable, Black and Indigenous population, was added to better incorporate past harms to these communities.The vulnerability score was rescaled from 0 to 100.

About this dataset

Context

The dataset presents median income data over a decade or more for males and females categorized by Total, Full-Time Year-Round (FT), and Part-Time (PT) employment in Portland. It showcases annual income, providing insights into gender-specific income distributions and the disparities between full-time and part-time work. The dataset can be utilized to gain insights into gender-based pay disparity trends and explore the variations in income for male and female individuals.

Key observations: Insights from 2023

Based on our analysis ACS 2019-2023 5-Year Estimates, we present the following observations: - All workers, aged 15 years and older: In Portland, the median income for all workers aged 15 years and older, regardless of work hours, was $49,508 for males and $41,478 for females.

These income figures indicate a substantial gender-based pay disparity, showcasing a gap of approximately 16% between the median incomes of males and females in Portland. With women, regardless of work hours, earning 84 cents to each dollar earned by men, this income disparity reveals a concerning trend toward wage inequality that demands attention in thecity of Portland.

- Full-time workers, aged 15 years and older: In Portland, among full-time, year-round workers aged 15 years and older, males earned a median income of $66,777, while females earned $60,601, resulting in a 9% gender pay gap among full-time workers. This illustrates that women earn 91 cents for each dollar earned by men in full-time positions. While this gap shows a trend where women are inching closer to wage parity with men, it also exhibits a noticeable income difference for women working full-time in the city of Portland.

Interestingly, when analyzing income across all roles, including non-full-time employment, the gender pay gap percentage was higher for women compared to men. It appears that full-time employment presents a more favorable income scenario for women compared to other employment patterns in Portland.

The American Community Survey (ACS) is a nationwide survey designed to provide communities a fresh look at how they are changing. It will replace the decennial long form in future censuses and is a critical element in the Bureau of the Census reengineered 2010 census. The American Community Survey is conducted under the authority of Title 13, United States Code, Sections 141 and 193, and response is mandatory. The scope of the 1996 ACS was limited to housing units, occupied and vacant, in four sites: (1) Brevard County, Florida, a single county MSA, (2) Rockland County, New York, NY Primary Metropolitan Statistical Area (PMSA), (3) Multnomah County, Oregon, and the city of Portland, Oregon, a large nonmetropolitan county that is part of multiple county PMSA (includes the entire city of Portland which is located primarily in Multnomah County but also extends into Washington and Clackamas Counties), (4) Fulton County, Pennsylvania, a nonmetropolitan county that does not have a countywide address system at this time, and does not plan to convert to a countywide address system at the time of the survey.
