Greenspace and sudden unexpected death

Metadata Updated: November 12, 2020

The attached dataset comprises 187 records, summarized by 2010 census tract. There are 40 variable fields including percent landcover type from the 2011 30m National Land Cover Dataset, density of greenway trails from Wake County (NC) gov't, and demographic attributes from the 2014 American Community Survey. Two fields reflect count (during 2013-2015) and rate of sudden death; these fields are blank because these human-health data are protected under IRB agreement through UNC.

The EPA/ORD point of contact for this analysis is Dr. Laura Jackson (jackson.laura@epa.gov). If interested in acessing the Wake County sudden death dataset, please contact Dr. Ross Simpson (ross_simpson@med.unc.edu).
