Municipal Population and Employment Forecasts for the DVRPC region, 2015 - 2050. To be used for planning purposes.

As a part of DVRPC’s long-range planning activities, the Commission is required to maintain forecasts with at least a 20-year horizon, or to the horizon year of the long-range plan. Allocation of growth is forecasted using a land use model, UrbanSim, and working closely with member county planning staffs. DVRPC has prepared regional, county, and municipal-level population and employment forecasts in five-year increments through 2050, using 2015 Census population estimates and 2015 National Establishments Time Series (NETS) employment data as the base. A forthcoming Analytical Data Report will document the forecasting process and methodologies.

This data provides the municipal level forecast for our 8 counties outside of Philadelphia, and Planning District-level forecast within Philadelphia. Note: while 2019 land use model results are provided, the forecast was only adopted for 2015, 2020, 2025, 2030, 2035, 2040, 2045, and 2050.

Philadelphia Council District Health Dashboard - Dataset and Codebook

Description

This dataset supports the Philadelphia Council District Health Dashboard, an interactive web application that visualizes health disparities and social determinants of health across Philadelphia's 10 City Council Districts. The dashboard provides district-level insights to guide equitable policy and investment decisions by City Council members and the public.

Background

Philadelphia residents experience drastically different health outcomes across the city – differences shaped by federal, state, and local policies rather than individual choices alone. This project maps key health indicators across all 10 Philadelphia City Council Districts to show how politics and geography intersect to shape Philadelphian health.

The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line File is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. The Feature Names Relationship File (FEATNAMES.dbf) contains a record for each feature name and any attributes associated with it. Each feature name can be linked to the corresponding edges that make up that feature in the All Lines Shapefile (EDGES.shp), where applicable to the corresponding address range or ranges in the Address Ranges Relationship File (ADDR.dbf), or to both files. Although this file includes feature names for all linear features, not just road features, the primary purpose of this relationship file is to identify all street names associated with each address range. An edge can have several feature names; an address range located on an edge can be associated with one or any combination of the available feature names (an address range can be linked to multiple feature names). The address range is identified by the address range identifier (ARID) attribute, which can be used to link to the Address Ranges Relationship File (ADDR.dbf). The linear feature is identified by the linear feature identifier (LINEARID) attribute, which can be used to relate the address range back to the name attributes of the feature in the Feature Names Relationship File or to the feature record in the Primary Roads, Primary and Secondary Roads, or All Roads Shapefiles. The edge to which a feature name applies can be determined by linking the feature name record to the All Lines Shapefile (EDGES.shp) using the permanent edge identifier (TLID) attribute. The address range identifier(s) (ARID) for a specific linear feature can be found by using the linear feature identifier (LINEARID) from the Feature Names Relationship File (FEATNAMES.dbf) through the Address Range / Feature Name Relationship File (ADDRFN.dbf).

This EnviroAtlas dataset describes the block group population and the percentage of the block group population that has potential views of water bodies. A potential view of water is defined as having a body of water that is greater than 300m2 within 50m of a residential location. The window views are considered "potential" because the procedure does not account for presence or directionality of windows in one's home. The residential locations are defined using the EnviroAtlas Dasymetric (2011/October 2015) map. This dataset was produced by the US EPA to support research and online mapping activities related to EnviroAtlas. EnviroAtlas (https://www.epa.gov/enviroatlas) allows the user to interact with a web-based, easy-to-use, mapping application to view and analyze multiple ecosystem services for the contiguous United States. The dataset is available as downloadable data (https://edg.epa.gov/data/Public/ORD/EnviroAtlas) or as an EnviroAtlas map service. Additional descriptive information about each attribute in this dataset can be found in its associated EnviroAtlas Fact Sheet (https://www.epa.gov/enviroatlas/enviroatlas-fact-sheets).

Energy Use and Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory for Greater Philadelphia https://www.dvrpc.org/Products/18018 Energy Use is defined as the BBTU (Billion British Thermal Units) equivalent of energy consumed by end point users. For electricity this is the BBTU equivalent of the electricity at point of consumption, not the heat content of the fuels used for electricity generation. Emissions (MTCO2E - Metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent) from the following sectors and fuel sources are not included in this allocation: enteric fermentation and manure management; commerical and general aviation; marine and port-related activity; off-road vehicles and equipment; freight and intercity passenger rail; coal; fuels used predominently in the industrial sector (e.g., petroleum coke); and land use, land use change, and forestry.

Population and Employment data used in this analysis came from DVRPC's Municipal-level Poulation and Employment Forecasts.

GEOID_10 - Unique GIS ID for Municipality.

ACRES - Total Municipal Acres.

USEACRES - Energy Use per Acres (BBTUs).

EUPOPEM - Energy Use per Person/Job (BBTUs).

EMIACRE - GHG Emissions per Acre (MTCO2E).

EMPOPE - GHG Emissions per Person/Job (MTCO2E).

EMSQACRE - GHG Emissions/Sequestration including Land Use, Land Use Change, and Foresty per Acres (MTCO2E).

EMSQPOPE - GHG Emissions/Sequestration including Land Use, Land Use Change, and Foresty per Person/Job (MTCO2E). DVRPC estimates that net GHG emissions decreased 10 percent from 2010 to 2015, from emissions equivalent to the release of 82 million metric tons of carbon dioxide (MMTCO2e) to about 74 MMTCO2e. GHG emissions were 21 percent lower in 2015 than in 2005. The top three drivers of reductions between 2010 and 2015 were, in decreasing levels of significance, change in electricity generation mix (a cleaner electricity grid due to the continued switch from coal to natural gas), decreased on-road emissions per mile traveled, and decreased electricity consumption per household. Continued reductions will require sustained, concerted and aggressive action at the household, firm, community, regional, state, national, and global level, as well as continued technical advancement.
