Description: This feature layer represents the census tracts within the current Council Districts, specifically clipped by the I-30 boundary to focus on areas identified as having the greatest needs by the Welcoming Communities and Immigrant Affairs (WCIA) Ambassador Program criteria. The layer includes various socio-demographic attributes such as the percentage of renters, limited English proficiency, foreign-born residents, and Spanish speakers at home. These attributes are combined to generate a compound score for each census tract, which is visualized to assist in identifying key areas for targeted interventions and resource allocation as part of the 2024 Request for Proposals (RFP). This visualization aids in understanding and addressing community needs within the targeted council districts.
