Population by age groups, race and gender, and the poverty by race is attached to the split tract geography to create this split tract with population and poverty data. Split tract data is the product of 2020 census tracts split by 2023 incorporated city boundaries and unincorporated community/countywide statistical areas (CSA) boundaries as of July 1, 2023. The census tract boundaries have been altered and aligned where necessary with legal city boundaries and unincorporated areas, including shoreline/coastal areas.

The Los Angeles County Social Survey (LACSS) continues the Los Angeles Metropolitan Area Studies (LAMAS) and the Southern California Social Surveys (SCSS). The Log Angeles County Social Survey (LACSS) is part of a continuing annual research project supported by the Institute for Social Science Research at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). Each year a University of California researcher is given an opportunity to be principal investigator and to use a segment of the LACSS for his or her own research. The 1992 principal investigator was Dr. Lawrence Bobo, who was an Associate Professor of Sociology at UCLA. The LACSS 1992 was conducted between February and July 1992. Los Angeles County residents were asked questions concerning ethnic relations, social dominance, social distance, immigration, affirmative action, employment, and government. A split ballot methodology was utilized concerning the topics of immigration and affirmative action. Respondents were randomly selected to answer a series of questions from one of three ballots. In addition, a different series of social distance questions were asked depending on the respondent's ethnicity. Questionnaires were provided in both English and Spanish languages. Demographic information collected includes race, gender, religion, age, education level, occupation, birth place, political party affiliation and ideology, and origin of ancestry.

This dataset was used to analyze differences in impervious surface levels by race while also accounting for other sociodemographic factors and land use in Los Angeles County. Data was downloaded from the websites of the U.S. Geological Survey, U.S. Census Bureau, and Southern California Association of Governments. Due to redlining and disinvestment in neighborhoods of color, there are generally fewer green spaces and greater urban heat island effects in neighborhoods of color throughout the U.S., as documented in the environmental justice literature. Replacing impervious surfaces like concrete and asphalt with green stormwater infrastructure can help increase green space and reduce urban heat while also meeting local stormwater goals. This research supports existing findings and ties it to the local stormwater context in Los Angeles County. Based on the results of this research, local decision-makers should consider racial demographics when prioritizing where to remove impervious surface and replacing with green stormwater infrastructure.
