This layer displays the estimated percentage of household income for housing and transportation for a family earning the Area Median Income (AMI). The expected values for housing and transportation are modelled by HUD using data from the US Census Bureau and the US Department of Transportation, including: The average household size for a family earning…
The Flood Hazard Zones are extracted from the National Flood Hazard Layer, which is a database that contains FEMA’s flood hazard map data. The database contains flood hazard information and supporting data used to develop the information. The primary flood hazard classification is indicated in the Flood Hazard Zones layer. Flood zones are geographic areas…
The 12-Digit Hydrologic Units, a component of the Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD), depict the sixth level hydrologic subdivision of the United States. A hydrologic unit can accept surface water from upstream drainage areas and may define a drainage area with single or multiple outlet points. A 12-digit hydrologic unit, or subwatershed, supports water resource management…
The 10-Digit Hydrologic Units, a component of the Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD), depict the fifth level hydrologic subdivision of the United States. A hydrologic unit can accept surface water from upstream drainage areas and may define a drainage area with single or multiple outlet points. A 10-digit hydrologic unit, or watershed, divides sub-basins into smaller…
The 8-Digit Hydrologic Units, a component of the Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD), depict the fourth level hydrologic subdivision of the United States. A hydrologic unit can accept surface water from upstream drainage areas and may define a drainage area with single or multiple outlet points. An 8-digit hydrologic unit, or sub-basin, is a common management…
The 6-Digit Hydrologic Units, a component of the Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD), depict the third level hydrologic subdivision of the United States. A 6-digit hydrologic unit may subdivide a 4-digit hyrologic unit or may be equivalent. There are 401 6-digit hydrololgic units with an average size of 10,486 square miles (27,159 sq. km.).
The 4-Digit Hydrologic Units, a component of the Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD), depict the second level hydrologic subdivision of the United States. A 4-digit hydrologic unit includes the area drained by a river system, a reach of a river and its tributaries in that reach, a closed basin(s), or a group of streams forming a…
The 2-Digit Hydrologic Units, a component of the Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD), depict the major water resource regions of the United States. A water resource region is the first level of classification used by the United States Geological Survey to divide and sub-divide the United States into successively smaller hydrologic units. This first level of…
This layer displays information about residents of assisted housing properties in counties across the US. Characteristics include the percent of disabled, elderly, and single-parents in assisted housing facilities.
Layer displays the approximate locations of Multifamily Assisted Housing properties that are monitored by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The three largest assistance programs for Multifamily housing are Section 8 (Project Based Assistance), Section 202 (Supportive Housing for the Elderly), and Section 811 (Supportive Housing for Persons with Disabilities).
