"description":"Priority Equity Communities are census tracts in the SCAG region that have a greater concentration of populations that have been historically marginalized and are susceptible to inequitable outcomes based on several socioeconomic factors. The socioeconomic factors, or priority populations, were selected based on statutorily protected populations and refined with input gathered through outreach processes. The US Census Bureau 2017-2021 American Community Survey 5-Year estimates are used to define each of the thresholds for the priority populations. SCAG\u2019s 2022 High Quality Transit Corridors are used in the Limited Vehicle and Transit Access criteria. This dataset uses 2020 census tracts in the SCAG region. A census tract is considered a Priority Equity Community if there is a concentration above the county average of: BOTH low-income households and people of color; OR EITHER low-income households or people of color AND of four or more of the following: Vulnerable Ages  People with Disabilities People with Limited English Proficiency Limited Vehicle and Transit Access  People without a High School Diploma Single Parent Households Housing Cost Burdened Households SCAG prepared the dataset by calculating county-level averages for each criterion and removing census tracts that did not meet the criteria.
