Users can obtain descriptions, maps, profiles, and ranks of U.S. metropolitan areas pertaining to quality of life, diversity, and opportunities for racial and ethnic groups in the U.S. BackgroundThe Diversity Data project operates a website for users to explore how U.S. metropolitan areas perform on evidence-based social measures affecting quality of life, diversity and opportunity for racial and ethnic groups in the United States. These indicators capture a broad definition of quality of life and health, including opportunities for good schools, housing, jobs, wages, health and social services, and safe neighborhoods. This is a useful resource for people inter ested in advocating for policy and social change regarding neighborhood integration, residential mobility, anti-discrimination in housing, urban renewal, school quality and economic opportunities. The Diversity Data project is an ongoing project of the Harvard School of Public Health (Department of Society, Human Development and Health). User FunctionalityUsers can obtain a description, profile and rank of U.S. metropolitan areas and compare ranks across metropolitan areas. Users can also generate maps which demonstrate the distribution of these measures across the United States. Demographic information is available by race/ethnicity. Data NotesData are derived from multiple sources including: the U.S. Census Bureau; National Center for Health Statistics' Vital Statistics Natality Birth Data; Natio nal Center for Education Statistics; Union CPS Utilities Data CD; National Low Income Housing Coalition; Freddie Mac Conventional Mortgage Home Price Index; Neighborhood Change Database; Joint Center for Housing Studies of Harvard University; Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMD); Dr. Russ Lopez, Boston University School of Public Health, Department of Environmental Health; HUD State of the Cities Data Systems; Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality; and Texas Transportation Institute.

Faced with demographic change, many colleges are offering courses on race and ethnicity. How does taking race-centered courses affect public opinion? We theorize that while White, Latino, and Asian American students develop inclusive political attitudes through race-centered coursework, Black Americans may already enter college with a deeper understanding about racial issues. We test these expectations using two longitudinal multi-racial datasets. First, using a national panel survey of college students, we find that ethnic studies coursework is associated with increased recognition of racial discrimination among Whites, Latinos, and even Black Americans. Second, using an original panel survey from a public university, we find reduced racial resentment and increased affirmative action support - albeit varied - among Whites, Latinos, and Asian Americans after completing race-centered political science classes but not in placebo politics classes that were not focused on race. Our findings have implications for conversations about race-centered coursework in higher education.

This dataset contains indicators for both the decennial Census and American Community Survey (ACS) describing the population of Massachusetts through census geographies associated with the 2020 Decennial Census. Decennial Census indicators exist as the block, block group, and tract levels. ACS indicators are only at the block group and tract levels. The American Community Survey is produced annually by the U.S. Census Bureau in one-, three-, and five-year estimates. It details basic information on demographics, race and ethnicity, economics, education levels, transportation modes, family and households characteristics, etc. The indicators here are from five-year estimates. Raw data and more information on the American Community Survey can be found at https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/acs/.

According to recent research, racial and ethnic diversity reduces U.S. localities' investment in public goods. Yet we remain unsure about the mechanisms behind that relationship, and uncertain that the relationship is causal. This essay addresses these challenges by studying the impact of racial and ethnic demographics on property tax votes in Massachusetts and Texas. Employing novel time-series cross-sectional data, it departs from the emerging consensus by showing that diversity does not always influence local tax votes. Instead, diversity reduces localities' willingness to raise taxes only when localities are undergoing sudden demographic changes. Theoretically, this finding points us away from the dominant understanding of diversity as divergent preferences, and towards approaches that emphasize how sudden demographic changes can destabilize residents' expectations and influence local elites. To understand how diversity influences public good provision, we should look to those towns that are diversifying, not those towns that are diverse.

About this dataset

Context

The dataset presents the median household income across different racial categories in Harvard. It portrays the median household income of the head of household across racial categories (excluding ethnicity) as identified by the Census Bureau. The dataset can be utilized to gain insights into economic disparities and trends and explore the variations in median houshold income for diverse racial categories.

Key observations

Based on our analysis of the distribution of Harvard population by race & ethnicity, the population is predominantly White. This particular racial category constitutes the majority, accounting for 82.08% of the total residents in Harvard. Notably, the median household income for White households is $68,097. Interestingly, despite the White population being the most populous, it is worth noting that Two or More Races households actually reports the highest median household income, with a median income of $70,935. This reveals that, while Whites may be the most numerous in Harvard, Two or More Races households experience greater economic prosperity in terms of median household income.

We provide four dictionaries that provide the racial distributions associated with names in the United States. These dictionaries are used by the latest iteration of the "WRU" package (Khanna et al., 2022) to make probabilistic predictions about the race of individuals, given their names and geolocations. The probabilities cover five racial categories: White, Black, Hispanic, Asian, and Other. We provide two surname dictionaries. The first provides entries P(race | surname) for about 160K names, derived from the 2010 Census surname list, aggregated with the Census Spanish surname list. The second provides analogous probabilities for 1.48MM surnames. This dictionary is created by starting with the Census-based dictionary and supplementing it with race distributions estimated from the voter files of six Southern states -- Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, North Carolina, and South Carolina -- that collect race data. We also provide dictionaries estimating P(race | first name) and P(race | middle name). These dictionaries -- which contain 1.04MM and 1.16MM names respectively -- are sourced exclusively from the voter files of the six Southern states.

Dataset containing ~8000 entries with demographic information on places and 700 entries with information on territories between 1701 and 1808. The information was compiled mainly from original sources and thus carries the bias inherent to them! The original information has very varying categories within which population was recorded (along the lines of gender, civil status, age, "casta"-status and other) which were stored where possible, with some fields calculating aggregated sums from these fields.
