Zip Codes (5-digit). The dataset polygons represent location and attributes of zip codes, created as part of the DC Geographic Information System (DC GIS) for the D.C. Office of the Chief Technology Officer (OCTO) and participating D.C. government agencies. Zip Codes were identified from public records (US Postal Service) and created selecting arcs from the street centerlines and vector property map.

• Context I am greatly inspired with this dataset containing geo spatial details for each zip code and contains the total wages for each area.This gave me opportunity to create a data visualisation in Tableau using HexBin chart which is added as a Kernel to this dataset.

  Other Sources of zipcode information:

• Placenames (Cities, towns, geographic features) can be found at US Geological Survey GNIS Dataset The IRS has additional data fields for 2008 and is reviewing their publication procedures for later years.

  see http://www.irs.gov/taxstats/indtaxstats/article/0,,id=96947,00.html

• The Census publishes data, but they use Zipcode Tabulation Areas (ZCTAs) which

• 1) have changed areas between the 2000 census and the 2010 census

• 2) do not map well to USPS zipcodes well. If needed http://www.census.gov/geo/ZCTA/zcta.html Social Security recipients by zipcode http://www.ssa.gov/policy/docs/statcomps/oasdi_zip/ For economic researchers and those who want tons of background on data sources by zipcode, University of Missouri OSEDA project

  • Free Zipcode Database (8.7 MB) Updated 1/22/2012 All Locations (Multiple locations for some zipcodes)

  Inspiration I am hoping that people in the right government agencies/authorities would be able to utilize this data to focus on

  community developments where it needs immediate attention.

This dataset contains model-based ZIP Code Tabulation Area (ZCTA) level estimates for the PLACES 2022 release in GIS-friendly format. PLACES covers the entire United States—50 states and the District of Columbia (DC)—at county, place, census tract, and ZIP Code Tabulation Area levels. It provides information uniformly on this large scale for local areas at 4 geographic levels. Estimates were provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Division of Population Health, Epidemiology and Surveillance Branch. PLACES was funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation in conjunction with the CDC Foundation. Data sources used to generate these model-based estimates include Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) 2020 or 2019 data, Census Bureau 2010 population estimates, and American Community Survey (ACS) 2015–2019 estimates. The 2022 release uses 2020 BRFSS data for 25 measures and 2019 BRFSS data for 4 measures (high blood pressure, taking high blood pressure medication, high cholesterol, and cholesterol screening) that the survey collects data on every other year. These data can be joined with the census 2010 ZCTA boundary file in a GIS system to produce maps for 29 measures at the ZCTA level. An ArcGIS Online feature service is also available for users to make maps online or to add data to desktop GIS software. https://cdcarcgis.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=3b7221d4e47740cab9235b839fa55cd7

This dataset contains model-based ZIP Code Tabulation Area (ZCTA) level estimates for the PLACES 2021 release in GIS-friendly format. PLACES is the expansion of the original 500 Cities Project and covers the entire United States—50 states and the District of Columbia (DC)—at county, place, census tract, and ZIP Code Tabulation Area (ZCTA) levels. It represents a first-of-its kind effort to release information uniformly on this large scale for local areas at 4 geographic levels. Estimates were provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Division of Population Health, Epidemiology and Surveillance Branch. PLACES was funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) in conjunction with the CDC Foundation. Data sources used to generate these model-based estimates include Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) 2019 or 2018 data, Census Bureau 2010 population estimates, and American Community Survey (ACS) 2015–2019 or 2014–2018 estimates. The 2021 release uses 2019 BRFSS data for 22 measures and 2018 BRFSS data for 7 measures (all teeth lost, dental visits, mammograms, cervical cancer screening, colorectal cancer screening, core preventive services among older adults, and sleeping less than 7 hours a night). Seven measures are based on the 2018 BRFSS data because the relevant questions are only asked every other year in the BRFSS. These data can be joined with the census 2010 ZCTA boundary file in a GIS system to produce maps for 29 measures at the ZCTA level.

This app displays a series of general information for an address, location, or where the user clicks in DC. Some information returned are:Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) areaCombined Sewer System (CSS) areaWatershed, Subwatershed, HUC12, HUC14, HUC16Ward, ANC, SMD, and the address of the locationCensus Tract and zip code For addresses along the borders of watersheds and sewer areas, further investigation should be taken. For hydrologic calculations and determinations, the USGS Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD) should be referenced.DC Water operates a "separate" (MS4) and "combined" (CSS) sewers. Since the early 1900's, sewers constructed within the District have been separate systems and no new combined sewer systems have been built. These two independent piping systems: CSS mixes "sanitary" (sewage from homes and businesses) with stormwater while the MS4 is for "stormwater" only. In the District, approximately two thirds of the District is served by the MS4. The remaining one-third is served by the CSS.Areas highlighted in blue are MS4, in orange are CSS, and in green are direct drain areas that drain directly to streams and rivers.The MS4 system discharges into portions of the Potomac, Anacostia and Rock Creek drainage areas. The CSS drains to Blue Plains Advance Wastewater Treatment Facility.Visit DOEE - Water in the District Page or DOEE Environmental Mapping.For the USGS Hydrologic and Watershed Boundary Data for DC, visit this Link.https://dcgis.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=54da82ed8d264bbbb7f9087df8c947c3
