Abstract

This dataset was curated for the digital humanities portion of the project "500 Years of Black History in South Florida" by Synatra Smith, Luling Huang, and Portia Hopkins.

Methodology

Data was curated at the U.S. Census Tract level for four counties in South Florida: Broward, Miami-Dade, Monroe, and Palm Beach.

There are two tables in this dataset:

• sociodem_enepov: This table contains several sociodemographic variables and energy burden level at the census tract level;
• airqua: This table contains monthly median air quality data at the census tract level for Year 2016.

%3C!-- --%3E

The sociodemographic data come from the American Community Survey (2020 5-year estimates). The variables include fraction of black population, median income, unemployment rate, and four education level variables for population 25 years or above: fraction of population below high school, fraction of population who had high school diploma only, fraction of population who had a college degree or equivalent only, and fraction of population who had a graduate degree. Here are the table numbers and relevant columns from the U.S. Census data portal:

• Education: S1501
• Black population: B01001B (column: B01001B_001E)
• Total population: B01001 (for calculating fraction of black population)
• Median income: S1903 (column: S1903_C03_001E)
• Employment: S2301 (column: S2301_C04_001E)

%3C!-- --%3E

The energy burden data come from the U.S. Department of Energy's Low-Income Energy Affordability Data (LEAD) tool. The air quality (PM2.5 concentration) data come from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Daily Census Tract-Level PM2.5 Concentrations, 2016.

This project is conducted on behalf of the Association for the Study of African American Life and History and the National Park Service with additional funding from the Council on Library and Information Resources.

This study contains data files and documentation for the survey data from all four sites of the Project on Devolution and Urban Change (Urban Change, for short). This study examines the implementation and effects of Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) in four urban counties: Cuyahoga (Cleveland), Philadelphia, Miami-Dade, and Los Angeles. The study's focal period of the late 1990s through the early 2000s was one of prolonged economic expansion and unprecedented decline in unemployment. The study thus captures the most promising context for welfare reform: one of high labor market demand and ample resources to support families in the process of moving from welfare to work. The included data set is a concatenated version of the longitudinal client survey data used in the following MDRC publications: Welfare Reform in Cleveland: Implementation, Effects, and Experiences of Poor Families and Neighborhoods. (September 2002) Welfare Reform in Philadelphia: Implementation, Effects, and Experiences of Poor Families and Neighborhoods. (September 2003) Welfare Reform in Miami: Implementation, Effects, and Experiences of Poor Families and Neighborhoods. (June 2004) Welfare Reform in Los Angeles: Implementation, Effects, and Experiences of Poor Families and Neighborhoods. (August 2005) The files consist of one SAS data set containing responses to two waves of interviews on education, training, employment, family and household composition, housing, income, material hardship, welfare, health and health care, fertility and childbearing, parenting, child care, domestic violence, substance use, and demographic background. These data are a Fast Track Release and are distributed as they were received from the data depositor. The files have been zipped for release, but not checked or processed.
