blockgroupvulnerability OPPORTUNITY The US Centers for Disease Control (CDC) publishes a set of percentiles that compare US geographies by vulnerability across household, socioeconomic, racial/ethnic and housing themes. These Social Vulnerability Indexes (SVI) were originally intended to to help public health officials and emergency response planners identify communities that will need support around an event. They are generally valuable for any public interest that wants to relate themselves to needy communities by geography. The SVI publication and its basis variables are provided at the Census tract level of geographic detail. The Census' American Community Survey is available down the to the block group level, however. Recasting the SVI methods at this lower level of geography allows it to be tied to thousands of other demographic variables available. Because the SVI relies on ACS variables only available at the tract level, a projection model needs to applied to approximate its results using blockgroup level ACS variables. The blockgroupvulnerability dataset casts a prediction for the CDCs logic for a new contribution to the Open Environments blockgroup series available on Harvard's dataverse platform. DATA The CDC's annual SVI publication starts with 23 simple derivations using 50 ACS Census variables. Next the SVI process ranks census geographies to calculate a rank for each, where Percentile Rank = (Rank-1) / (N-1). The SVI themes are then calculated at the tract level as a percentile rank of a sum of the percentile ranks of the first level ACS derived variables. Finally, the overall ranking is taken as the sum of the theme percentile rankings. The SVI data publication is keyed by geography (7 cols) where ultimately the Census Tract FIPS code is 2 State + 3 County + 4 Tract + 2 Tract Decimals eg, 56043000301 is 56 Wyoming, 043 Washakie County, Tract 3.01 republishes Census demographics called 'adjunct variables' including area, population, households and housing units from the ACS daytime population taken from LandScan 2020 estimates derives 23 SVI variables from 50 ACS 5 Year variables with each having an estimate (E_), estimate precentage (EP_), margin of error (M_), margin percentage (MP_) and flag variable (F_) for those greater than 90% or less than 10% provides the final 4 themes and a composite SVI percentile annually vars = ['ST', 'STATE', 'ST_ABBR', 'STCNTY', 'COUNTY', 'FIPS', 'LOCATION'] +\ ['SNGPNT','LIMENG','DISABL','AGE65','AGE17','NOVEH','MUNIT','MOBILE','GROUPQ','CROWD','UNINSUR','UNEMP','POV150','NOHSDP','HBURD','TWOMORE','OTHERRACE','NHPI','MINRTY','HISP','ASIAN','AIAN','AFAM','NOINT'] +\ ['TOTAL','THEME1','THEME2','THEME3','THEME4'] + \ ['AREA_SQMI', 'TOTPOP', 'DAYPOP', 'HU', 'HH'] knowns = vars + \ # Estimates, the result of calc against ACS vars [('E_'+v) for v in vars] + \ # Flag 0,1 whether this geog is in 90 percentile rank (its vulnerable) [('F_'+v) for v in vars] +\ # Margine of error for ACS calcs [('M_'+v) for v in vars] + \ # Margine of error for ACS calcs, as percentage [('MP_'+v) for v in vars] +\ # Estimates of ACS calcs, as percentage [('EP_'+v) for v in vars] + \ # Estimated percentile ranks [('EPL_'+v) for v in vars] + \ # Sum across var percentile ranks [('SPL_'+v) for v in vars]+ \ # Percentile rank of the sum of percentile ranks [('RPL_'+v) for v in vars] [c for c in svitract.columns if c not in knowns] The SVI themes range over [0,1] but the CDC uses -999 as an NA value; this is set for ~800 or 1% of tracts which have no total poulation.

What is CDC Social Vulnerability Index?ATSDR’s Geospatial Research, Analysis & Services Program (GRASP) created the Social Vulnerability Index (SVI) to help emergency response planners and public health officials identify and map the communities that will most likely need support before, during, and after a hazardous event.SVI uses U.S Census Data to determine the social vulnerability of every county and tract. CDC SVI ranks each county and tract on 16 social factors, including poverty, lack of vehicle access, and crowded housing, and groups them into four related themes:Theme 1 - Socioeconomic StatusTheme 2 - Household CharacteristicsTheme 3 - Racial & Ethnic Minority StatusTheme 4 - Housing Type & Transportation VariablesFor a detailed description of variable uses, please refer to the full SVI 2020 Documentation.RankingsWe ranked counties and tracts for the entire United States against one another. This feature layer can be used for mapping and analysis of relative vulnerability of counties in multiple states, or across the U.S. as a whole. Rankings are based on percentiles. Percentile ranking values range from 0 to 1, with higher values indicating greater vulnerability. For each county and tract, we generated its percentile rank among all counties and tracts for 1) the sixteen individual variables, 2) the four themes, and 3) its overall position. Overall Rankings:We totaled the sums for each theme, ordered the counties, and then calculated overall percentile rankings. Please note: taking the sum of the sums for each theme is the same as summing individual variable rankings.The overall tract summary ranking variable is RPL_THEMES. Theme rankings:For each of the four themes, we summed the percentiles for the variables comprising each theme. We ordered the summed percentiles for each theme to determine theme-specific percentile rankings. The four summary theme ranking variables are: Socioeconomic Status - RPL_THEME1Household Characteristics - RPL_THEME2Racial & Ethnic Minority Status - RPL_THEME3Housing Type & Transportation - RPL_THEME4FlagsCounties and tracts in the top 10%, i.e., at the 90th percentile of values, are given a value of 1 to indicate high vulnerability. Counties and tracts below the 90th percentile are given a value of 0. For a theme, the flag value is the number of flags for variables comprising the theme. We calculated the overall flag value for each county as the total number of all variable flags.

Historic data are scarce and often only exists in aggregate tables. The key advantage of historic US census data is the availability of individual and household level characteristics that researchers can tabulate in ways that benefits their specific research questions. The data contain demographic variables, economic variables, migration variables and family variables. Within households, it is possible to create relational data as all relations between household members are known. For example, having data on the mother and her children in a household enables researchers to calculate the mother’s age at birth. Another advantage of the Complete Count data is the possibility to follow individuals over time using a historical identifier.

In sum: the historic US census data are a unique source for research on social and economic change and can provide population health researchers with information about social and economic determinants.

The historic US 1920 census data was collected in January 1920. Enumerators collected data traveling to households and counting the residents who regularly slept at the household. Individuals lacking permanent housing were counted as residents of the place where they were when the data was collected. Household members absent on the day of data collected were either listed to the household with the help of other household members or were scheduled for the last census subdivision.

Notes

• We provide household and person data separately so that it is convenient to explore the descriptive statistics on each level. In order to obtain a full dataset, merge the household and person on the variables SERIAL and SERIALP. In order to create a longitudinal dataset, merge datasets on the variable HISTID.

• Households with more than 60 people in the original data were broken up for processing purposes. Every person in the large households are considered to be in their own household. The original large households can be identified using the variable SPLIT, reconstructed using the variable SPLITHID, and the original count is found in the variable SPLITNUM.

• Coded variables derived from string variables are still in progress. These variables include: occupation and industry.

• Missing observations have been allocated and some inconsistencies have been edited for the following variables: SPEAKENG, YRIMMIG, CITIZEN, AGE, BPL, MBPL, FBPL, LIT, SCHOOL, OWNERSHP, MORTGAGE, FARM, CLASSWKR, OCC1950, IND1950, MARST, RACE, SEX, RELATE, MTONGUE. The flag variables indicating an allocated observation for the associated variables can be included in your extract by clicking the ‘Select data quality flags’ box on the extract summary page.

• Most inconsistent information was not edited for this release, thus there are observations outside of the universe for some variables. In particular, the variables GQ, and GQTYPE have known inconsistencies and will be improved with the next release.

Section 2

This dataset was created on 2020-01-10 18:46:34.647 by merging multiple datasets together. The source datasets for this version were:

IPUMS 1920 households: This dataset includes all households from the 1920 US census.

IPUMS 1920 persons: This dataset includes all individuals from the 1920 US census.

IPUMS 1920 Lookup: This dataset includes variable names, variable labels, variable values, and corresponding variable value labels for the IPUMS 1920 datasets.

The dataset contains census tract-level socioeconomic data from the U.S. Census American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year estimates representing average characteristics from 2014 to 2018 using Neighborhoods at Risk, a free and interactive data tool. Each row in the data table represents a census tract. Neighborhoods at Risk displays nine socioeconomic variables and filters about people. For each characteristic, the tool provides a margin of error as reported by the census. The data includes the following variables: children under five years old, families in poverty, households with no car, housing units that are rentals, people of color, including Hispanics, people over 65 years old, people who don’t speak English well, people with disabilities, and people without health insurance.

Data across all counties in five states (Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas) in the U.S. were collected for the study on the impact of the socio-economic and political status on the county-level COVID-19 vaccination rates. Variables were obtained from various data sources; the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Bureau of Economic Analysis, 2010 US Census, Politico, and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). It was found that county-level vaccination rates were significantly associated with the percentage of Democrat votes, the elderly population, and per capita income of the county. In addition, the results revealed racial and ethnic disparities in COVID-19 vaccination. The manuscript entitled “Socio-political and Economic Impact on the COVID-19 Vaccination: Southwest Regional Study” was submitted for publication.

we utilized data from two main sources: the United States Census Bureau's American Community Survey (ACS) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention/Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (CDC/ATSDR) Social Vulnerability Index (SVI). American Community Survey (ACS):

Conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau, the ACS is an ongoing survey that provides detailed demographic and socio-economic data on the population and housing characteristics of the United States. The survey collects information on various topics such as income, education, employment, health insurance coverage, and housing costs and conditions. It offers more frequent and up-to-date information compared to the decennial census, with annual estimates produced based on a rolling sample of households. The ACS data is essential for policymakers, researchers, and communities to make informed decisions and address the evolving needs of the population.

CDC/ATSDR Social Vulnerability Index (SVI):

Created by ATSDR’s Geospatial Research, Analysis & Services Program (GRASP) and utilized by the CDC, the SVI is designed to identify and map communities that are most likely to need support before, during, and after hazardous events. SVI ranks U.S. Census tracts based on 15 social factors, including unemployment, minority status, and disability, and groups them into four related themes Each tract receives rankings for each Census variable and for each theme, as well as an overall ranking, indicating its relative vulnerability. SVI data provides insights into the social vulnerability of communities at both the tract and county levels, helping public health officials and emergency response planners allocate resources effectively.

In our utilization of these sources, we likely integrated data from both the ACS and the SVI to analyze and understand various socio-economic and demographic indicators at the state, county, and possibly tract levels.

we utilized data from two main sources: the United States Census Bureau's American Community Survey (ACS) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention/Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (CDC/ATSDR) Social Vulnerability Index (SVI). American Community Survey (ACS):

Conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau, the ACS is an ongoing survey that provides detailed demographic and socio-economic data on the population and housing characteristics of the United States. The survey collects information on various topics such as income, education, employment, health insurance coverage, and housing costs and conditions. It offers more frequent and up-to-date information compared to the decennial census, with annual estimates produced based on a rolling sample of households. The ACS data is essential for policymakers, researchers, and communities to make informed decisions and address the evolving needs of the population.

CDC/ATSDR Social Vulnerability Index (SVI):

Created by ATSDR’s Geospatial Research, Analysis & Services Program (GRASP) and utilized by the CDC, the SVI is designed to identify and map communities that are most likely to need support before, during, and after hazardous events. SVI ranks U.S. Census tracts based on 15 social factors, including unemployment, minority status, and disability, and groups them into four related themes Each tract receives rankings for each Census variable and for each theme, as well as an overall ranking, indicating its relative vulnerability. SVI data provides insights into the social vulnerability of communities at both the tract and county levels, helping public health officials and emergency response planners allocate resources effectively.

In our utilization of these sources, we likely integrated data from both the ACS and the SVI to analyze and understand various socio-economic and demographic indicators at the state, county, and possibly tract levels.

The SVI ranks each census tract on 15 social factors, including poverty, lack of vehicle access, and crowded housing, and groups them into four related themes:SocioeconomicHousing Composition and DisabilityMinority Status and LanguageHousing and Transportation VariablesFor a detailed description of variable uses, please refer to the full 2014 SVI documentation.RankingsWe ranked census tracts for the entire United States against one another. This feature layer can be used for mapping and analysis of relative vulnerability of census tracts in multiple states, or across the U.S. as a whole. Census tract rankings are based on percentiles. Percentile ranking values range from 0 to 1, with higher values indicating greater vulnerability. For each census tract, we generated its percentile rank among all census tracts for 1) the fifteen individual variables, 2) the four themes, and 3) Its overall position. Overall Rankings:We summed the sums for each theme, ordered the census tracts, and then calculated overall percentile rankings. Please note; taking the sum of the sums for each theme is the same as summing individual variable rankings.The overall tract summary ranking variable is RPL_THEMES. Theme rankings:For each of the four themes, we summed the percentiles for the variables comprising each theme. We ordered the summed percentiles for each theme to determine theme-specific percentile rankings. The four summary theme ranking variables are: Socioeconomic theme - RPL_THEME1Housing Composition and Disability - RPL_THEME2Minority Status & Language - RPL_THEME3Housing & Transportation - RPL_THEME4FlagsCensus tracts in the top 10%, i.e., at the 90th percentile of values, are given a value of 1 to indicate high vulnerability. Census tracts below the 90th percentile are given a value of 0. For a theme, the flag value is the number of flags for variables comprising the theme. We calculated the overall flag value for each census tract as the number of all variable flags.
