Design Review Equity Areas are areas of Seattle where applicants for development projects going through the City’s Design Review program are required to work with staff from the Department of Neighborhoods (DON) to customize their community outreach plan to the needs of historically underrepresented communities. Equity Areas are identified based on local demographic and socioeconomic characteristics from the US Census Bureau. Equity Areas are census tracts having a census-tract average greater than the city-as-a-whole average for at least two of the following characteristics: 1. Limited English proficiency, identified as percentage of households that are linguistically isolated households. 2. People of Color, identified as percentage of the population that is not non-Hispanic white; and 3. Income, identified as percentage of population with income below 200% of the federal poverty level. For more information please see Director’s Rule for Early Community Outreach for Design Review. Additional resources and FAQs are available on DON’s Early Community Outreach webpage.
