Filter by the Indicator column to select data for a particular indicator.

User notes: 10/9/25 - for the report year 2025, data for the following indicators were uploaded with changes relative to report year 2023: Crime Rate: As of January 1, 2021, the FBI replaced the Summary Reporting System (SRS) with the National Incident Based Reporting System (NIBRS), which expands how crimes were recorded and classified. This report uses California’s version of NIBRS, the California Incident Based Reporting System (CIBRS), obtained from the SANDAG Open Data Portal. Crime rates are not disaggregated by jurisdiction, as in the previous Equity Indicator Report. Internet access: The age group variable was incorporated to account for notable disparities in internet access by age. Police Stops and Searches: refined methods. Agency data was aggregated to San Diego County because data was available for all agencies; previously data was available for three agencies. Analysis of RIPA data was updated to exclude stops where the stop was made in response to a call for service, combine transgender women and transgender men into a transgender category, and limit to contraband found during search. Used term “discovery rate” instead of “hit rate.” Removed comparison to traffic collision data and instead compared to population estimates from the American Community Survey. Jail Incarceration: new data sources. The numerator data for the average daily population data in jail was obtained from the San Diego County Sheriff's Office. Population data to calculate the rates was obtained from the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG). The terms for conviction status were corrected to "locally sentenced" and "unsentenced" for sentencing status. For jail population data, East African was reclassified as Black and Middle Eastern as White to allow for calculation of rates using SANDAG population estimates.

8/1/25 - for the report year 2025, the following change were made: Business Ownership: the minority and nonminority labels were switched for the population estimates and some of the race/ethnicity data for nonemployer businesses were corrected. Homelessness: added asterisks to category name for unincorporated regions to allow for a footnote in the figure in the story page.

7/11/25 - for the report year 2025, the following changes were made: Beach Water Quality: the number of days with advisories was corrected for Imperial Beach municipal beach, San Diego Bay, and Ocean Beach.

5/22/25 - for the report year 2023, the following changes were made: Youth poverty/Poverty: IPUMS identified an error in the POVERTY variable for multi-year ACS samples. In July 2024, they released a revised version of all multi-year ACS samples to IPUMS USA, which included corrected POVERTY values. The corrected POVERTY values were downloaded, and the analysis was rerun for this indicator using the 2021 ACS 5-year Estimates. Youth Poverty: data source label corrected to be 2021 for all years. Employment, Homeownership, and Cost-Burdened Households - Notes were made consistent for rows where category = Race/Ethnicity.

5/9/25 - Excluding data for the crime section indicators, data were appended on May 9, 2025 and the report will be updated to reflect the new data in August 2025. The following changes in methods were made: For indicators based on American Community Survey (ACS) data, the foreign-born category name was changed to Nativity Status. Internet access: Group quarters is a category included in the survey sample, but it is not part of the universe for the analysis. For the 2025 Equity Report year, respondents in group quarters were excluded from the analysis, whereas for the 2023 Equity Report year, these respondents were included. Adverse childhood experiences - new data source.
