Neighborhood Map Atlas neighborhoods are derived from the Seattle City Clerk's Office Geographic Indexing Atlas. These are the smallest neighborhood areas and have been supplemented with alternate names from other sources in 2020. They roll up to the district areas. The sub-neighborhood field contains the most common name and the alternate name field is a comma delimited list of all the alternate names.The original atlas is designed for subject indexing of legislation, photographs, and other documents and is an unofficial delineation of neighborhood boundaries used by the City Clerks Office. Sources for this atlas and the neighborhood names used in it include a 1980 neighborhood map produced by the Department of Community Development, Seattle Public Library indexes, a 1984-1986 Neighborhood Profiles feature series in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, numerous parks, land use and transportation planning studies, and records in the Seattle Municipal Archives. Many of the neighborhood names are traditional names whose meaning has changed over the years, and others derive from subdivision names or elementary school attendance areas.Disclaimer: The Seattle City Clerk's Office Geographic Indexing Atlas is designed for subject indexing of legislation, photographs, and other records in the City Clerk's Office and Seattle Municipal Archives according to geographic area. Neighborhoods are named and delineated in this collection of maps in order to provide consistency in the way geographic names are used in describing records of the Archives and City Clerk, thus allowing precise retrieval of records. The neighborhood names and boundaries are not intended to represent any "official" City of Seattle neighborhood map. The Office of the City Clerk makes no claims as to the completeness, accuracy, or content of any data contained in the Geographic Indexing Atlas; nor does it make any representation of any kind, including, but not limited to, warranty of the accuracy or fitness for a particular use; nor are any such warranties to be implied or inferred with respect to the representations furnished herein. The maps are subject to change for administrative purposes of the Office of the City Clerk. Information contained in the site, if used for any purpose other than as an indexing and search aid for the databases of the Office of the City Clerk, is being used at one's own risk.

Inspiration

I added this datasets so that people could filter datasets with Seattle locations or addresses into neighborhoods for analysis (specifically the Seattle AirBNB dataset).

Table from the American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year series on income and earning related topics for City of Seattle Council Districts, Comprehensive Plan Growth Areas and Community Reporting Areas. Table includes B19025 Aggregate Household Income, B19013 Median Household Income, B19001 Household Income, B19113 Median Family Household Income, B19101 Family Household Income, B19202 Median Nonfamily Household Income, B19201 Nonfamily Household Income, B19301 Per Capita Income/B19313 Aggregate Income/B01001 Sex by Age, C24010 Sex by Occupation of the Civilian Employed Population 16 years and Over, B20017 Median Earnings by Sex by Work Experience for the Population 16 years and over with Earnings, B20001 Sex by Earnings for the Population 16 years and over with Earnings. Data is pulled from block group tables for the most recent ACS vintage and summarized to the neighborhoods based on block group assignment.Table created for and used in the Neighborhood Profiles application.Vintages: 2023ACS Table(s): B19013, B19001, B19113, B19101, B19202, B19201, B19301, B19313, B01001, C24010, B20017, B20001, B19025Data downloaded from: Census Bureau's Explore Census Data The United States Census Bureau's American Community Survey (ACS):About the SurveyGeography & ACSTechnical DocumentationNews & UpdatesThis ready-to-use layer can be used within ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Online, its configurable apps, dashboards, Story Maps, custom apps, and mobile apps. Data can also be exported for offline workflows. Please cite the Census and ACS when using this data.Data Note from the Census:Data are based on a sample and are subject to sampling variability. The degree of uncertainty for an estimate arising from sampling variability is represented through the use of a margin of error. The value shown here is the 90 percent margin of error. The margin of error can be interpreted as providing a 90 percent probability that the interval defined by the estimate minus the margin of error and the estimate plus the margin of error (the lower and upper confidence bounds) contains the true value. In addition to sampling variability, the ACS estimates are subject to nonsampling error (for a discussion of nonsampling variability, see Accuracy of the Data). The effect of nonsampling error is not represented in these tables.Data Processing Notes:Boundaries come from the US Census TIGER geodatabases, specifically, the National Sub-State Geography Database (named tlgdb_(year)_a_us_substategeo.gdb). Boundaries are updated at the same time as the data updates (annually), and the boundary vintage appropriately matches the data vintage as specified by the Census. These are Census boundaries with water and/or coastlines erased for cartographic and mapping purposes. For census tracts, the water cutouts are derived from a subset of the 2020 Areal Hydrography boundaries offered by TIGER. Water bodies and rivers which are 50 million square meters or larger (mid to large sized water bodies) are erased from the tract level boundaries, as well as additional important features. For state and county boundaries, the water and coastlines are derived from the coastlines of the 2020 500k TIGER Cartographic Boundary Shapefiles. These are erased to more accurately portray the coastlines and Great Lakes. The original AWATER and ALAND fields are still available as attributes within the data table (units are square meters). The States layer contains 52 records - all US states, Washington D.C., and Puerto RicoCensus tracts with no population that occur in areas of water, such as oceans, are removed from this data service (Census Tracts beginning with 99).Percentages and derived counts, and associated margins of error, are calculated values (that can be identified by the "_calc_" stub in the field name), and abide by the specifications defined by the American Community Survey.Field alias names were created based on the Table Shells file available from the American Community Survey Summary File Documentation page.Negative values (e.g., -4444...) have been set to null, with the exception of -5555... which has been set to zero. These negative values exist in the raw API data to indicate the following situations:The margin of error column indicates that either no sample observations or too few sample observations were available to compute a standard error and thus the margin of error. A statistical test is not appropriate.Either no sample observations or too few sample observations were available to compute an estimate, or a ratio of medians cannot be calculated because one or both of the median estimates falls in the lowest interval or upper interval of an open-ended distribution.The median falls in the lowest interval of an open-ended distribution, or in the upper interval of an open-ended distribution. A statistical test is not appropriate.The estimate is controlled. A statistical test for sampling variability is not appropriate.The data for this geographic area cannot be displayed because the number of sample cases is too small.

Data from: American Community Survey, 5-year Series 2006-2010Community Reporting Area boundaries with American Community Survey data and attachments of census reports. Community Reporting Areas (CRAs) were established in 2004 as a standard, consistent, citywide geography for reporting purposes. There are 53 CRAs composed of from one to six census tracts.Neighborhood aggregations of American Community Survey tract-based data derived from the U.S. Census Bureau's demographic profiles (DP02-DP05). The geo service includes over 50 attributes of the most frequently requested data.Also includes custom reports in pdf format as attachments to each neighborhood.Please see the item page for the source map service for more information.When downloading the data, please select "GDB Download" under "Additional Resources" to preserve long field names and attachments. The associated file geodatabase contains a separate feature class for three levels of neighborhood geography - council districts, community reporting areas, and urban village demographic areas that includes these 50+ attributes.
