The poverty data used to determine which block groups qualified as EJ communities (see CT State statute 22a-20a) was based on the Census Bureau's 2019 ACS 5-year estimate- Table C17002. This poverty data was joined with the block group boundaries in ArcMap. Block groups in which the percent of the population below 200% of the federal poverty level was greater than or equal to 30.0 were selected and the resulting selection was exported as a new shapefile. The block groups were then clipped so that only those block groups outside of distressed municipalities were displayed. Maintenance \u2013 This layer will be updated annually and will coincide with the annual distressed municipalities update (around August/September). The latest ACS 5-year estimate data should be used to update this layer.\n\nEnvironmental Justice Distressed Municipalities 2021 was created from Connecticut town boundary data located in the Census Bureau's 2019 TIGER/Line Shapefiles (County Subdivisions).\u00a0<div><br /></div><div>From this shapefile, &quot;select by attribute&quot; was used to select the distressed municipalities by town name (note: the list of 2021 distressed municipalities was provided by the CT Department of Economic and Community Development). The selection was then exported a new shapefile. The \u201cUnion\u201d tool was used to unite the new shapefile with tribal lands (American Indian Area Geography) boundary data from the 2019 TIGER/Line files. In the resulting layer, the tribal lands were deleted so only the distressed municipalities remained. Maintenance \u2013 This layer will be updated annually when the DECD produces its new list of distressed municipalities (around August/September).</div>", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "downloadURL": "https://geodata.ct.gov/api/download/v1/items/0522f1c8e9bd40918a8a6618e87b8fee/csv?layers=1", "mediaType": "text/csv", "title": "CSV"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "downloadURL": "https://geodata.ct.gov/api/download/v1/items/0522f1c8e9bd40918a8a6618e87b8fee/excel?layers=1", "mediaType": "application/vnd.ms-excel", "title": "Excel"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "downloadURL": "https://geodata.ct.gov/api/download/v1/items/0522f1c8e9bd40918a8a6618e87b8fee/featureCollection?layers=1", "mediaType": "text/plain", "title": "Feature Collection"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "downloadURL": "https://geodata.ct.gov/api/download/v1/items/0522f1c8e9bd40918a8a6618e87b8fee/filegdb?layers=1", "mediaType": "application/zip", "title": "File Geodatabase"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "downloadURL": "https://geodata.ct.gov/api/download/v1/items/0522f1c8e9bd40918a8a6618e87b8fee/geoPackage?layers=1", "mediaType": "application/geopackage+sqlite3", "title": "GeoPackage"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "downloadURL": "https://geodata.ct.gov/api/download/v1/items/0522f1c8e9bd40918a8a6618e87b8fee/geojson?layers=1", "mediaType": "application/vnd.geo+json", "title": "GeoJSON"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "downloadURL": "https://geodata.ct.gov/api/download/v1/items/0522f1c8e9bd40918a8a6618e87b8fee/kml?layers=1", "mediaType": "application/vnd.google-earth.kml+xml", "title": "KML"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "downloadURL": "https://geodata.ct.gov/api/download/v1/items/0522f1c8e9bd40918a8a6618e87b8fee/shapefile?layers=1", "mediaType": "application/zip", "title": "Shapefile"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "downloadURL": "https://geodata.ct.gov/api/download/v1/items/0522f1c8e9bd40918a8a6618e87b8fee/sqlite?layers=1", "mediaType": "application/geopackage+sqlite3", "title": "SQLite Geodatabase"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "downloadURL": "https://geodata.ct.gov/datasets/CTDEEP::environmental-justice-distressed-municipalities-2021", "mediaType": "text/html", "title": "ArcGIS Hub Dataset"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "downloadURL": "https://services1.arcgis.com/FjPcSmEFuDYlIdKC/arcgis/rest/services/Environmental_Justice_2021_Set/FeatureServer/1", "mediaType": "application/json", "title": "ArcGIS GeoService"}], "identifier": "https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=0522f1c8e9bd40918a8a6618e87b8fee&sublayer=1", "issued": "2021-11-08", "keyword": ["2021", "block groups", "census data", "connecticut", "ct", "ct deep", "distressed municipalities", "ej", "environmental", "environmental justice", "municipalities"], "landingPage": "https://geodata.ct.gov/datasets/CTDEEP::environmental-justice-distressed-municipalities-2021", "license": "https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0", "modified": "2021-11-08", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "Department of Energy & Environmental Protection"}, "spatial": "-73.2435,41.1398,-71.7827,41.9626", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "Environmental Justice Distressed Municipalities 2021"}
