Scope of gender :

Please note that American Community Survey asks a question about the respondents current sex, but not about gender, sexual orientation, or sex at birth. The question is intended to capture data for biological sex, not gender. Respondents are supposed to respond with the answer as either of Male or Female. Our research and this dataset mirrors the data reported as Male and Female for gender distribution analysis.

Population totals for groupings commonly used in other datasets. Not all values are available for all years. Note that because the "Citywide" rows roll up the values from the individual ZIP Codes and the "Age 0-4," "Age 5-11," "Age 12-17," "Age 5+," "Age 18+," and "Age 65+" columns overlap other age categories, as well as each other in some cases, care should be taken in summing values to avoid accidental double-counting. The "Age 5-11" and "Age 12-17" columns only include children who live in households. Data Sources: U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year estimates (ZIP Code) and 1-year estimates (Citywide). The U.S. Census Bureau did not release standard 1-year estimates from the 2020 ACS. In 2020 only, 5-year estimates were used for the Citywide estimates.

About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the South Chicago Heights population over the last 20 plus years. It lists the population for each year, along with the year on year change in population, as well as the change in percentage terms for each year. The dataset can be utilized to understand the population change of South Chicago Heights across the last two decades. For example, using this dataset, we can identify if the population is declining or increasing. If there is a change, when the population peaked, or if it is still growing and has not reached its peak. We can also compare the trend with the overall trend of United States population over the same period of time.

Key observations

In 2022, the population of South Chicago Heights was 3,871, a 1.58% decrease year-by-year from 2021. Previously, in 2021, South Chicago Heights population was 3,933, a decline of 1.80% compared to a population of 4,005 in 2020. Over the last 20 plus years, between 2000 and 2022, population of South Chicago Heights decreased by 100. In this period, the peak population was 4,173 in the year 2013. The numbers suggest that the population has already reached its peak and is showing a trend of decline. Source: U.S. Census Bureau Population Estimates Program (PEP).

Background

In the wake of a nationwide controversy over policing, we've decided to study one of the largest police departments in the United States: the Chicago Police Department (CPD). Thanks to the Invisible Institute, a non-profit journalism organization, we acquired and analyzed comprehensive data on police brutality in Chicago. However, there is still much to consider:

What effects do education, income, and marital status have on crime rates and policing patterns? Is the CPD allocating its resources in the most effective manner? Who are the people being policed?

With detailed demographic data, we can more confidently explore these difficult questions.

Methods

We acquired 2 GeoJSON files describing block group and beat boundaries. Using each geographical division has its distinct benefit: block groups have corresponding census data; beats are used in police records.

We then created two 10,000x10,000 arrays of strings, one for each division, where each position (or pixel) represents a 13.8x13.8 ft region of Chicago, and each string assigns that pixel to its block group / beat. The scalings for the two arrays are the same, meaning that pixel (x, y) in the block group array is geographically identical to (x, y) in the beat array.

Block groups (L), beats (R)

We scraped each block group's demographic data from [3]. Under the simplifying assumption that any two pixels within the same block group have the same data, we "distributed" each block group's data among its constituent pixels. Lastly, we calculated the data for each beat by "summing up" the data of its constituent pixels.

Caveats

1) The above procedure of "distributing" and "summing up" data, which enables the conversion from block groups to beats, is an approximation. However, since beats are much larger than block groups (as can be seen in the above maps), we have sufficient reason to trust the accuracy of this approximation method. See the Accuracy section for more details.

2) The CPD has made slight changes to its beat boundaries over the years. The beats described in this dataset are up-to-date. This data still can be used with older police records, but with minor hiccups for a few beats.

Accuracy

The main cause of errors in our data is the imperfect overlapping between block group and beat boundaries. Such overlapping is broken into 2 groups: 1) those along Chicago's boundaries; and 2) those within Chicago's boundaries.

We checked for the impact of 1) by "adding up" the estimated data for each beat and cross-referencing them to Chicago's totals (e.g. adding every beat's population, and comparing the sum to Chicago's population). Since many block groups straddle Chicago's borders, how well our approximation algorithm handles their data determines the accuracy of our totals. We calculated percentage errors between our totals and those from [3], finding that none exceeded 2% (see ERRORLOG.txt for more details). Thus, our data is, for the large part, clear of errors caused by 1).

Since inaccuracies committed by our algorithm within Chicago's boundaries have no impact on our totals, the above method can't find any inaccuracies caused by 2). Indeed, since there exists no official demographic data for beats, it's probably impossible to precisely check for this. The best we could do was to create map...

This dataset contains a selection of six socioeconomic indicators of public health significance and a “hardship index,” by Chicago community area, for the years 2007 – 2011. The indicators are the percent of occupied housing units with more than one person per room (i.e., crowded housing); the percent of households living below the federal poverty level; the percent of persons in the labor force over the age of 16 years that are unemployed; the percent of persons over the age of 25 years without a high school diploma; the percent of the population under 18 or over 64 years of age (i.e., dependency); and per capita income. Indicators for Chicago as a whole are provided in the final row of the table.
