This layer displays reading proficiency rates for counties and school districts across the United States. Data are acquired from the US Department of Education (ED) EdFacts 2015-16 data tables. Z-Scores are calculated for counties within states displaying the magnitude of each county’s deviation above or below the state average.
View in Map RoomThis map layer displays the change (+/-) in Area Deprivation Index (ADI) scores between the 2013 and 2015 datasets. The ADI is a rankings of neighborhoods by socioeconomic status disadvantage in a region of interest (e.g. at the state or national level). It includes factors for the theoretical domains of income, education, employment, and housing quality. It can be used to inform health delivery and policy, especially for the most disadvantaged neighborhood groups. The 2015 ADI (v2.0) was constructed using the 2011-2015 5-year estimates from the US Census’ American Community Survey. The methods are identical to the 2013 ADI construction.
