Knowing the racial and ethnic composition of a community is often one of the first steps in understanding, serving, and advocating for various groups. This information can help enforce laws, policies, and regulations against discrimination based on race and ethnicity. These statistics can also help tailor services to accommodate cultural differences.This multi-scale map shows the most common race/ethnicity living within an area. Map opens at tract-level in Los Angeles, CA but has national coverage. Zoom out to see counties and states.This map uses these hosted feature layers containing the most recent American Community Survey data. These layers are part of the ArcGIS Living Atlas, and are updated every year when the American Community Survey releases new estimates, so values in the map always reflect the newest data available. The data on race were derived from answers to the question on race that was asked of individuals in the United States. The Census Bureau collects racial data in accordance with guidelines provided by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB), and these data are based on self-identification. The racial categories included in the census questionnaire generally reflect a social definition of race recognized in this country and not an attempt to define race biologically, anthropologically, or genetically. The categories represent a social-political construct designed for collecting data on the race and ethnicity of broad population groups in this country, and are not anthropologically or scientifically based.

A detailed explanation of how this dataset was put together, including data sources and methodologies, follows below.Please see the "Terms of Use" section below for the Data DictionaryDATA ACQUISITION AND CLEANING PROCESSThis dataset was built from 5 separate datasets queried during the months of April and May 2023 from the Census Microdata System (link below):https://data.census.gov/mdat/#/All datasets include information on Property Value (VALP) by: Educational Attainment (SCHL), Gender (SEX), a specified race or ethnicity (RAC or HISP), and are grouped by Public Use Microdata Areas (PUMAS). PUMAS are geographic areas created by the Census bureau; they are weighted by land area and population to facilitate data analysis. Data also Included totals for the state of New Mexico, so 19 total geographies are represented. Datasets were downloaded separately by race and ethnicity because this was the only way to obtain the VALP, SCHL, and SEX variables intersectionally with race or ethnicity data. Datasets were downloaded separately by race and ethnicity because this was the only way to obtain the VALP, SCHL, and SEX variables intersectionally with race or ethnicity data. Cleaning each dataset started with recoding the SCHL and HISP variables - details on recoding can be found below.After recoding, each dataset was transposed so that PUMAS were rows and SCHL, VALP, SEX, and Race or Ethnicity variables were the columns.Median values were calculated in every case that recoding was necessary. As a result, all Property Values in this dataset reflect median values.At times the ACS data downloaded with zeros instead of the 'null' values in initial query results. The VALP variable also included a "-1" variable to reflect N/A values (details in variable notes). Both zeros and "-1" values were removed before calculating median values, both to keep the data true to the original query and to generate accurate median values.Recoding the SCHL variable resulted in 5 rows for each PUMA, reflecting the different levels of educational attainment in each region. Columns grouped variables by race or ethnicity and gender. Cell values were property values.All 5 datasets were joined after recoding and cleaning the data. Original datasets all include 95 rows with 5 separate Educational Attainment variables for each PUMA, including New Mexico State totals.Because 1 row was needed for each PUMA in order to map this data, the data was split by Educational Attainment (SCHL), resulting in 110 columns reflecting median property values for each race or ethnicity by gender and level of educational attainment.A short, unique 2 to 5 letter alias was created for each PUMA area in anticipation of needing a unique identifier to join the data with. GIS AND MAPPING PROCESSA PUMA shapefile was downloaded from the ACS site. The Shapefile can be downloaded here: https://tigerweb.geo.census.gov/arcgis/rest/services/TIGERweb/PUMA_TAD_TAZ_UGA_ZCTA/MapServerThe DBF from the PUMA shapefile was exported to Excel; this shapefile data included needed geographic information for mapping such as: GEOID, PUMACE. The UIDs created for each PUMA were added to the shapefile data; the PUMA shapfile data and ACS data were then joined on UID in JMP.The data table was joined to the shapefile in ARC GiIS, based on PUMA region (specifically GEOID text).The resulting shapefile was exported as a GDB (geodatabase) in order to keep 'Null' values in the data. GDBs are capable of including a rule allowing null values where shapefiles are not. This GDB was uploaded to NMCDCs Arc Gis platform. SYSTEMS USEDMS Excel was used for data cleaning, recoding, and deriving values. Recoding was done directly in the Microdata system when possible - but because the system is was in beta at the time of use some features were not functional at times.JMP was used to transpose, join, and split data. ARC GIS Desktop was used to create the shapefile uploaded to NMCDC's online platform. VARIABLE AND RECODING NOTESTIMEFRAME: Data was queried for the 5 year period of 2015 to 2019 because ACS changed its definiton for and methods of collecting data on race and ethinicity in 2020. The change resulted in greater aggregation and les granular data on variables from 2020 onward.Note: All Race Data reflects that respondants identified as the specified race alone or in combination with one or more other races.VARIABLE:ACS VARIABLE DEFINITIONACS VARIABLE NOTESDETAILS OR URL FOR RAW DATA DOWNLOADRACBLKBlack or African American ACS Query: RACBLK, SCHL, SEX, VALP 2019 5yrRACAIANAmerican Indian and Alaska Native ACS Query: RACAIAN, SCHL, SEX, VALP 2019 5yrRACASNAsian ACS Query: RACASN, SCHL, SEX, VALP 2019 5yrRACWHTWhite ACS Query: RACWHT, SCHL, SEX, VALP 2019 5yrHISPHispanic Origin ACS Query: HISP ORG, SCHL, SEX, VALP 2019 5yrHISP RECODE: 24 original separate variablesThe Hispanic Origin (HISP) variable originally included 24 subcategories reflecting Mexican, Central American, South American, and Caribbean Latino, and Spanish identities from each Latin American counry. 7 recoded VariablesThese 24 variables were recoded (grouped) into 7 simpler categories for data analysis: Not Spanish/Hispanic/Latino, Mexican, Caribbean Latino, Central American, South American, Spaniard, All other Spanish/Hispanic/Latino Female.

This survey was designed to investigate whether having psychological connections to particular groups (ex: racial, ethnic, and national origin groups) and perceptions of discrimination lead to alienation from the structure and operation of representative democracy in the United States. The data allow for comparative ethnic analyses of people's views regarding the representative-constituent relationship and of the conditions under which group identifications and perceptions of discrimination matter. The survey includes oversamples of Black, Latino, and Asian respondents. A Spanish version of the survey was available. Demographic information retrieved about respondents include age, race/ethnicity, gender, education (highest degree received), employment status, marital status, religion, household size and income. In addition, ancestry was assessed with the question, "From what countries or parts of the world did your ancestors come?" Respondents also reported United States citizenship status, primary home language, and nationality. Variables focusing on respondent perceived representation in the United States include political ideology and political party affiliation.

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.

Purpose: To determine if medical students of different races/ethnicities or genders have different perceptions of bias in the United States (US). Methods: An IRB-approved, anonymous survey was sent to US medical students from November 2022 through February 2024. Students responded to statements regarding perceptions of bias toward them from attendings, patients, and classmates. Chi-square tests, or Fisher’s exact tests, when appropriate, were used to calculate if significant differences exist among genders or races/ethnicities in response to these statements. Results: 370 students responded to this survey. Most respondents were women (n=259, 70%), and nearly half were White (n=164, 44.3%). 8.5% of women agreed that they felt excluded by attendings due to their gender, compared to 2.9% of men (p=0.018). 87.5% and 73.3% of Hispanic and Black students agreed that bias due to race negatively impacted research opportunities compared to 37.2% of White students (p<0.001). 87% and 85.7% of W..., This data was collected through Google Forms, and respondents were asked to log in with their email addresses to make sure that they could only submit their responses once.

Some respondents identify with all three terms while others may identify with only one of these three specific terms. People who identify with the terms “Hispanic,” “Latino,” or “Spanish” are those who classify themselves in one of the specific Hispanic, Latino, or Spanish categories listed on the questionnaire (“Mexican, Mexican Am., or Chicano,” “Puerto Rican,” or “Cuban”) as well as those who indicate that they are “another Hispanic, Latino, or Spanish origin.” People who do not identify with one of the specific origins listed on the questionnaire but indicate that they are “another Hispanic, Latino, or Spanish origin” are those whose origins are from Spain, the Spanish-speaking countries of Central or South America, or another Spanish culture or origin. Origin can be viewed as the heritage, nationality group, lineage, or country of birth of the person or the person’s parents or ancestors before their arrival in the UnitedStates. People who identify their origin as Hispanic, Latino, or Spanish may be of any race.

The purpose of this study was to provide an appropriate theoretical and empirical approach to concepts, measures, and methods in the study of black Americans. The questionnaire was developed over two years with input from social scientists, students, and a national advisory panel of black scholars. The final instrument is comprehensive, encompassing several broad areas related to black American life. The study explores neighborhood-community integration, services, crime and community contact, the role of religion and the church, physical and mental health, and self-esteem. It examines employment, the effects of chronic unemployment, the effects of race on the job, and interaction with family and friends. The survey includes questions about racial attitudes, race identity, group stereotypes, and race ideology. Demographic variables include education, income, occupation, and political behavior and affiliation. The sample includes 2,107 black United States citizens, 18 years of age or older. A national multistage probability sample was selected. Therefore, the sample is self-weighting and every black American household in the continental United States had an equal probability of being selected. The Murray Research Archive has available numeric file data from the study. A subset of numeric file data comprised of 500 respondents and 152 variables created specifically for use in research methodology and statistics courses is also available. Additional waves of data for this study have been collected and are available through ICPSR.

Abstract

The Race Relations Survey was a one-off survey conducted by Gallup in November 2018.

The Race Relations Survey includes topics that were previously represented in the Gallup Poll Social Series' Minority Rights and Relations Survey, which ran through 2016.

Methodology

The Race Relations Survey was a one-off survey that leveraged the same methodology as the Gallup Poll Social Series (GPSS). The Race Relations Survey duplicates many topics from the Gallup Poll Social Series' discontinued June survey, Minority Rights and Relations.

Gallup interviews a minimum of 1,000 U.S. adults aged 18 and older living in all 50 states and the District of Columbia using a dual-frame design, which includes both landline and cellphone numbers. Gallup samples landline and cellphone numbers using random-digit-dial methods. Gallup purchases samples for this study from Survey Sampling International (SSI). Gallup chooses landline respondents at random within each household based on which member had the next birthday. Each sample of national adults includes a minimum quota of 70% cellphone respondents and 30% landline respondents, with additional minimum quotas by time zone within region. Gallup conducts interviews in Spanish for respondents who are primarily Spanish-speaking.

Gallup weights samples to correct for unequal selection probability, nonresponse, and double coverage of landline and cellphone users in the two sampling frames. Gallup also weights its final samples to match the U.S. population according to gender, age, race, Hispanic ethnicity, education, region, population density, and phone status (cellphone only, landline only, both, and cellphone mostly). Demographic weighting targets are based on the most recent Current Population Survey figures for the aged 18 and older U.S. population. Phone status targets are based on the most recent National Health Interview Survey. Population density targets are based on the most recent U.S. Census.

Users can download data regarding the experiences and attitudes of Latinos in the United States. BackgroundThe National Survey of Latinos was conducted by the Pew Hispanic Center. This survey explores the attitudes and experiences of Latinos in the United States. Survey topics include: attitudes towards immigrants, perceptions of discrimination, language ability, language preference, education, experiences with the health care system, fears of deportation, and attitudes about enforcement policy. User FunctionalityUsers can download the dataset directly into SPS S statistical software. Data NotesA nationally representative sample of adult Latinos (age 18 and older) was surveyed in 2002, 2004, 2006 and 2007. Telephone surveys were completed among respondents with a landline or cell phone. Surveys do not include all questions asked in previous surveys. National and state-level information is available.

The Race and Carceral State Survey was fielded from May 11 to June 9, 2017 via Survey Sampling International to a sample of 8,093 White and 3,073 Black Americans. The survey instrument includes several experiments, detailed questions on experiences with carceral state institutions, racial attitudes, and standard demographic questions.

This Jefferson County, Alabama survey of 399 adults collected responses to questions on various topics including racial attitudes and quality of life.

Challenging Racism Project National Dataset contains 43 surveys items including questions assessing racial attitudes, social distance items (level of concern if a close friend or family member married a person of specific background), experiences of racism, frequency of interethnic mixing, demographic questions, and geographical identifiers. The 12512 surveys were conducted via a telephone by the Social Research Centre and the Hunter Valley Research Foundation's call centre on behalf of the project. Queensland and NSW data were collected in 2001, Victoria in 2006, South Australia and Australian Capital Territory in 2007, and Northern Territory, Tasmania and Perth in 2008. Survey respondents were not identifiable, beyond demographic characteristics collected. The data were analysed by using SPSS.

This study explores attitudes and perceptions related to urban problems and race relations in 15 northern cities of the United States (Baltimore, Boston, Brooklyn, Chicago, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Detroit, Gary, Milwaukee, Newark, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, St. Louis, San Francisco, and Washington, DC). More specifically, it seeks to define the social and psychological characteristics and aspirations of the Black and White urban populations. Samples of Blacks and Whites were selected in each of the cities in early 1968. The study employed two questionnaire forms, one for Whites and one for Blacks, and two corresponding data files were generated. Attitudinal questions asked of the White and Black respondents measured their satisfaction with community services, their feelings about the effectiveness of government in solving urban problems, and their experience with police abuse. Additional questions about the respondent's familiarity with and participation in antipoverty programs were included. Other questions centered on the respondent's opinions about the 1967 riots: the main causes, the purpose, the major participating classes, and the effect of the riots on the Black cause. Respondents' interracial relationships, their attitudes toward integration, and their perceptions of the hostility between the races were also investigated. White respondents were asked about their opinions on the use of governmental intervention as a solution for various problems of the Blacks, such as substandard schools, unemployment, and unfair housing practices. Respondent's reactions to nonviolent and violent protests by Blacks, their acceptance of counter-rioting by Whites and their ideas concerning possible governmental action to prevent further rioting were elicited. Inquiries were made as to whether or not the respondent had given money to support or hinder the Black cause. Other items investigated respondents' perceptions of racial discrimination in jobs, education, and housing, and their reactions to working under or living next door to a Black person. Black respondents were asked about their perceptions of discrimination in hiring, promotion, and housing, and general attitudes toward themselves and towards Blacks in general. The survey also investigated respondents' past participation in civil rights organizations and in nonviolent and/or violent protests, their sympathy with rioters, and the likelihood of personal participation in a future riot. Other questions probed respondents' attitudes toward various civil rights leaders along with their concurrence with statements concerning the meaning of 'Black power.' Demographic variables include sex and age of the respondent, and the age and relationship to the respondent of each person in the household, as well as information about the number of persons in the household, their race, and the type of structure in which they lived. Additional demographic topics include the occupational and educational background of the respondent, of the respondent's family head, and of the respondent's father. The respondent's family income and the amount of that income earned by the head of the family were obtained, and it was determined if any of the family income came from welfare, Social Security, or veteran's benefits. This study also ascertained the place of birth of the respondent and respondent's m other and father, in order to measure the degree of southern influence. Other questions investigated the respondent's military background, religious preference, marital status, and family composition.

The data on relationship to householder were derived from answers to Question 2 in the 2015 American Community Survey (ACS), which was asked of all people in housing units. The question on relationship is essential for classifying the population information on families and other groups. Information about changes in the composition of the American family, from the number of people living alone to the number of children living with only one parent, is essential for planning and carrying out a number of federal programs.

The responses to this question were used to determine the relationships of all persons to the householder, as well as household type (married couple family, nonfamily, etc.). From responses to this question, we were able to determine numbers of related children, own children, unmarried partner households, and multi-generational households. We calculated average household and family size. When relationship was not reported, it was imputed using the age difference between the householder and the person, sex, and marital status.

Household – A household includes all the people who occupy a housing unit. (People not living in households are classified as living in group quarters.) A housing unit is a house, an apartment, a mobile home, a group of rooms, or a single room that is occupied (or if vacant, is intended for occupancy) as separate living quarters. Separate living quarters are those in which the occupants live separately from any other people in the building and which have direct access from the outside of the building or through a common hall. The occupants may be a single family, one person living alone, two or more families living together, or any other group of related or unrelated people who share living arrangements.

Average Household Size – A measure obtained by dividing the number of people in households by the number of households. In cases where people in households are cross-classified by race or Hispanic origin, people in the household are classified by the race or Hispanic origin of the householder rather than the race or Hispanic origin of each individual.

Average household size is rounded to the nearest hundredth.

Comparability – The relationship categories for the most part can be compared to previous ACS years and to similar data collected in the decennial census, CPS, and SIPP. With the change in 2008 from “In-law” to the two categories of “Parent-in-law” and “Son-in-law or daughter-in-law,” caution should be exercised when comparing data on in-laws from previous years. “In-law” encompassed any type of in-law such as sister-in-law. Combining “Parent-in-law” and “son-in-law or daughter-in-law” does not represent all “in-laws” in 2008.

The same can be said of comparing the three categories of “biological” “step,” and “adopted” child in 2008 to “Child” in previous years. Before 2008, respondents may have considered anyone under 18 as “child” and chosen that category. The ACS includes “foster child” as a category. However, the 2010 Census did not contain this category, and “foster children” were included in the “Other nonrelative” category. Therefore, comparison of “foster child” cannot be made to the 2010 Census. Beginning in 2013, the “spouse” category includes same-sex spouses.

Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner. The Evidence for Equality National Survey (EVENS) is a national survey that documents the experiences and attitudes of ethnic and religious minorities in Britain. EVENS was developed by the Centre on the Dynamics of Ethnicity (CoDE) in response to the disproportionate impacts of COVID-19 and is the largest and most comprehensive survey of the lives of ethnic and religious minorities in Britain for more than 25 years. EVENS used pioneering, robust survey methods to collect data in 2021 from 14,200 participants of whom 9,700 identify as from an ethnic or religious minority. The EVENS main dataset, which is available from the UK Data Service under SN 9116, covers a large number of topics including racism and discrimination, education, employment, housing and community, health, ethnic and religious identity, and social and political participation.The EVENS Teaching Dataset provides a selection of variables in an accessible form to support the use of EVENS in teaching across a range of subjects and levels of study. The dataset includes demographic data and variables to support the analysis of: racism and belonging health and well-being during COVID-19 political attitudes and trust. Main Topics: Racism, belonging, impact of COVID-19, health, well-being, financial position, political attitudes and trust.

The Presbyterian Panel began in 1973 and is an ongoing panel study in which mailed and web-based questionnaires are used to survey representative samples of constituency groups of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.). These constituency groups include members, elders, pastors serving in a congregation and specialized clergy serving elsewhere. The August 2013 and February 2017 Panel surveys both dealt with race and ethnicity, and the inclusion of a number of identical questions in the two surveys allows for analysis of change over time. This dataset contains data from clergy, members and elders of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.).
