The Federal Poverty Level (FPL) is a measure of poverty issued every year by the US Department of Health and Human Services. The 2022 FPL thresholds for a family of four correspond to annual incomes of $27,750 (100% FPL), $55,500 (200% FPL), and $83,250 (300% FPL).The Federal Poverty Level is used to determine eligibility for certain programs and benefits. Across the US, including in Los Angeles County, children represent the largest age group of individuals experiencing poverty. While poverty exerts negative impacts across the lifespan, childhood poverty is of particular concern. Children living in poverty are not only at higher risk for developmental delays, chronic illness, lead exposure, and food and housing insecurity, but they are also more likely to experience poverty into adulthood, which perpetuates generational cycles of poverty.For more information about the Community Health Profiles Data Initiative, please see the initiative homepage.

For the past several censuses, the Census Bureau has invited people to self-respond before following up in-person using census takers. The 2010 Census invited people to self-respond predominately by returning paper questionnaires in the mail. The 2020 Census allows people to self-respond in three ways: online, by phone, or by mail. The 2020 Census self-response rates are self-response rates for current census geographies. These rates are the daily and cumulative self-response rates for all housing units that received invitations to self-respond to the 2020 Census. The 2020 Census self-response rates are available for states, counties, census tracts, congressional districts, towns and townships, consolidated cities, incorporated places, tribal areas, and tribal census tracts. The Self-Response Rate of Los Angeles County is 65.1% for 2020 Census, which is slightly lower than 69.6% of California State rate.

This indicator provides information about the percentage of the population living in census tracts identified as having persistent poverty. The ACS defined persistent poverty as having a poverty rate of 20% or higher over a 30-year period using the 1990 and 2000 Censuses and the 2005–2009 and 2015–2019 ACS 5-year estimates. A census tract is characterized as a persistent poverty census tract if 20% or more of its residents are living below the federal poverty level over an extended period.Areas of persistent poverty may have limited access to healthcare services, quality education, and healthy and affordable food. These communities may also face unique social and structural challenges that relate to poverty. Identifying areas of persistent poverty and the population living in these areas can help streamline resource allocation to communities that may benefit the most from additional investments and support.For more information about the Community Health Profiles Data Initiative, please see the initiative homepage.

Tabular data of population by age groups, race and gender, and the poverty by race is attached to the split tract geography to create this split tract with population and poverty data. Split tract data is the product of 2020 census tracts split by 2021 incorporated city boundaries and unincorporated community/countywide statistical areas (CSA) boundaries. The census tract boundaries have been altered and aligned where necessary with legal city boundaries and unincorporated areas, including shoreline/coastal areas. Census Tract:Every 10 years the Census Bureau counts the population of the United States as mandated by Constitution. The Census Bureau (https://www.census.gov/) released 2020 geographic boundaries data including census tracts for the analysis and mapping of demographic information across the United States. City Boundary:City Boundary data is the base map information for the County of Los Angeles. These City Boundaries are based on the Los Angeles County Seamless Cadastral Landbase. The Landbase is jointly maintained by the Los Angeles County Assessor and the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works (DPW). This layer represents current city boundaries within Los Angeles County. The DPW provides the most current shapefiles representing city boundaries and city annexations. True, legal boundaries are only determined on the ground by surveyors licensed in the State of California.Countywide Statistical Areas (CSA): The countywide Statistical Area (CSA) was defined to provide a common geographic boundary for reporting departmental statistics for unincorporated areas and incorporated Los Angeles city to the Board of Supervisors. The CSA boundary and CSA names are established by the CIO and the LA County Enterprise GIS group worked with the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors Unincorporated Area and Field Deputies that reflect as best as possible the general name preferences of residents and historical names of areas. This data is primarily focused on broad statistics and reporting, not mapping of communities. This data is not designed to perfectly represent communities, nor jurisdictional boundaries such as Angeles National Forest.

CalFresh Cases in August 2022 in Los Angeles County, count per Census Tract. The CalFresh Program (formerly known as Food Stamps) helps low-income households increase their food-buying power to meet their household’s nutritional needs. In this dataset, a "Case" could refer to an individual or a household - any recipient of CalFresh benefits. In Los Angeles County, eligibility depends on income as compared to federal poverty level and other variables. As an imperfect indicator of CalFresh "gap" - where people who are eligible have not taken advantage of the benefit - this dataset divides CalFresh cases by number of households below different income levels. Layer also has information about "public assistance" from ACS table S1702.For more information about this dataset, please contact egis@isd.lacounty.govFor more information about CalFresh, please visit https://dpss.lacounty.gov/en/food/calfresh.html

In 2014 and 2015, The LA County Enterprise GIS team under the Geographic Information Officer worked with the Unincorporated Area Deputies and Field Deputies of each Board Office to establish names that reflect the desires of residents. CSAs differ from the more informal Community geographies because:They are focused on broad statistics and reporting, not mapping of communities.They represent board approved names assigned to Census block groups and city boundaries.They cover the entire unincorporated County (no gaps).There are not overlapping areas. Additionally, CSAs use the following naming conventions:All names are assumed to begin with Unincorporated (e.g. Unincorporated El Camino Village) which will not be part of the CSA Name (so the name of the Statistical Area would be El Camino Village).Names will not contain “Island.” Beginning each name with Unincorporated will distinguish an area from any surrounding cities. There may be one or more exceptions for certain small areas (e.g. Bandini Islands)A forward slash implies an undetermined boundary between two areas within a statistical geography (e.g. Westfield/Academy Hills or View Park/Windsor Hills)Certain established names may include hyphens (e.g. Florence-Firestone)Aliases may be defined in parentheses (e.g. Unincorporated Long Beach (Bonner/Carson Park))The original set of names were derived from community names used in the 2011 Redistricting process, chosen with the assistance of the Board of Supervisors.Updates: 2023 December: CSA data updated to include "Unincorporated Charter Oak" (south of 10 Freeway) into "Unincorporated Covina".2023 June: CSA data was updated to include "Kinneloa Mesa" community, which was a part of Unincorporated East Pasadena.2023 January: Updated layer schema to include feature type (“FEAT_TYPE”) field, which can be one of land, water, breakwater, or pier (consistent with the City Boundaries layer).2022 December: CSA data was updated to incorporate the “Tesoro Del Valle” annexation to the city of Santa Clarita. Unincorporated Valencia is now completely annexed to the City of Santa Clarita. In addition to land area, this data also includes other feature types such as piers, breakwater and water area. 2022 September: CSA data was updated to match with city boundaries along shoreline/coastal area and minor boundary adjusted in some other areas.

LC-06: Concentrated DisadvantageBrief description: Proportion of households located in census tracts with a high level of concentrated disadvantage, calculated using five census variablesIndicator category: Community Well-beingIndicator domain: Risk/OutcomeNumerator: Number of households with children less than 18 years of age located in census tracts of high concentrated disadvantageDenominator: Total number of households with children less than 18 years of agePotential modifiers: age, race, ethnicity, gender, geographic locationData source: American Community Survey (ACS)Notes on calculation: Concentrated disadvantage is calculated from five Census variables: 1) Percent of individuals below the poverty line, 2) Percent of individuals on public assistance, 3) Percent female-headed households, 4) Percent unemployed, 5) Percent less than age 18. The percentages of each individual indicator are z-score transformed. A Z-score transformation is achieved by subtracting the mean of the distribution from the variable value and dividing the difference by the standard deviation of the distribution. Z = (score - mean)/standard deviation. The resulting value should be averaged into an overall index of concentrated disadvantage or deprivation.More Information: https://amchp.org/amchp-resource-library/Distinct from similar uploads in that this layer uses 2020 Census tract geography and 2023 5-Year ACS data for calculation.
