{ "currentVersion": 10.91, "cimVersion": "2.9.0", "serviceDescription": "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:\nBOTH low-income households and people of color; OR\nEITHER low-income households or people of color AND of four or more of the following:\nVulnerable Ages \nPeople with Disabilities\nPeople with Limited English Proficiency\nLimited Vehicle and Transit Access \nPeople without a High School Diploma\nSingle Parent Households\nHousing Cost Burdened Households\nSCAG prepared the dataset by calculating county-level averages for each criterion and removing census tracts that did not meet the criteria.

Here, the overall score is calculated by combining the individual indicator scores within each of the two groups, then multiplying the Pollution Burden and Population Characteristics scores to produce a final score. Based on these final scores the census tracts across California are ranked relative to one another.Pollution Burden x Population Characteristics = CalEnviroScreen ScorePollution Burden(Ozone concentrations, PM2.5 concentrations, Diesel PM emissions, Pesticide use, Drinking water contaminants, Toxic releases from facilities, Traffic density, Cleanup sites (½), Groundwater threats (½), Hazardous waste (½), Impaired water bodies (½), Solid waste sites, and facilities (½))Population Characteristics(Children and elderly, Low birth-weight births, Asthma emergency department visits, Educational attainment, Linguistic isolation, Poverty, Unemployment) ", "Subject": "State environmental officials today (Oct. 2014) released an updated version of California\u2019s groundbreaking environmental health screening tool, CalEnviroScreen.
