This data set represents all urbanized tracts within the San Francisco Bay Region, and contains attributes for the eight Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) Communities of Concern (CoC) tract-level variables for exploratory purposes.

MTC 2018 Communities of Concern (tract geography) is based on eight ACS 2012-2016 tract-level variables: 
  • Minority (70% threshold) 
  • Low-Income (less than 200% of Fed. poverty level, 30% threshold) 
  • Level of English Proficiency (12% threshold) 
  • Elderly (10% threshold) 
  • Zero-Vehicle Households (10% threshold) 
  • Single Parent Households (20% threshold)
  • Disabled (12% threshold) 
  • Rent-Burdened Households (15% threshold) 
If a tract exceeds both threshold values for Low-Income and Minority shares OR exceeds the threshold value for Low-Income AND also exceeds the threshold values for three or more variables, it is a CoC.

Detailed documentation on the production of this feature set can be found in the MTC Communities of Concern project documentation.
