This dataset contains several demographic and transportation-related statistics by SCAG County and by race/ethnicity. Demographic data primarily relies on data from the U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey 5-Year Public User Microdata Sample, 2018-2022. Other data sources include SCAG Connect SoCal 2024, Healthy Places Index 3.0, U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Point-In-Time estimates, National Equity Atlas, and Transportation Injury Mapping System. Due to the differences in racial/ethnicity groups reported by each of these sources, this dataset provides all possible race/ethnicity group names and enters a "-1" value where information is not provided for that source. Updates to this dataset are expected annually, dependent on the data source. For all data sourced from Connect SoCal 2024, updates will be made with the adoption of the next Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy. For questions about methodology and updates, please e-mail environmentaljustice@scag.ca.gov. With SCAG's Racial Equity Baseline Conditions Report, this dataset is used to help stakeholders develop a deeper understanding of disparities and monitor progress toward addressing them by highlighting past transportation and housing policies and practices and providing a snapshot of current existing inequitable conditions. The latest version of the Racial Equity Baseline Conditions Report (2022) is available here: https://scag.ca.gov/sites/main/files/file-attachments/2022racialequitybaselineconditionsreport_final.pdf

In Charlottesville historic resources may be designated as part of a historic district, or may be individually designated. Individual properties are designated for protection through zoning because City Council has determined them to be of special historic, cultural, or architectural value.All Individually Protected Properties are subject to review by the Board of Architectural Review (BAR) for any exterior changes including demolitions. This ensures a public notification and review process before changes can be made to a protected property. Individual historic properties may also be recognized on the Virginia Landmarks Register or the National Register of Historic Places. State or National designation is an honorary recognition that, unlike local designation, does not impose any review restrictions. A significant benefit of State or National designation is that such properties may qualify for income tax credits for rehabilitation work.

The database (version August 2022) is built upon the released Global Subnational Atlas of Poverty (GSAP) (World Bank, 2021). In this database, we assemble a new panel dataset that provides (headcount) poverty rates using the daily poverty lines of US $1.90, $3.20, and $5.50 (based on the revised 2011 Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) dollars). This database is generated using household income and consumption surveys from the World Bank’s Global Monitoring Database (GMD), which underlie country official poverty statistics, and offers the most detailed subnational poverty data on a global scale to date. The Global Subnational Atlas of Poverty (GSAP) is produced by the World Bank’s Poverty and Equity Global Practice, coordinated by the Data for Goals (D4G) team, and supported by the six regional statistics teams in the Poverty and Equity Global Practice, and Global Poverty & Inequality Data Team (GPID) in Development Economics Data Group (DECDG) at the World Bank. The Global Monitoring Database (GMD) is the World Bank’s repository of multitopic income and expenditure household surveys used to monitor global poverty and shared prosperity. The household survey data are typically collected by national statistical offices in each country, and then compiled, processed, and harmonized. The process is coordinated by the Data for Goals (D4G) team and supported by the six regional statistics teams in the Poverty and Equity Global Practice. Global Poverty & Inequality Data Team (GPID) in Development Economics Data Group (DECDG) also contributed historical data from before 1990, and recent survey data from Luxemburg Income Studies (LIS). Selected variables have been harmonized to the extent possible such that levels and trends in poverty and other key sociodemographic attributes can be reasonably compared across and within countries over time. The GMD’s harmonized microdata are currently used in Poverty and Inequality Platform (PIP), World Bank’s Multidimensional Poverty Measures (WB MPM), the Global Database of Shared Prosperity (GDSP), and Poverty and Shared Prosperity Reports.
