An Equity Profile of Orange County
Data source summary and regional geography
Unless otherwise noted, all of the data and
analyses presented in this equity profile are
the product of PolicyLink and the USC
Program for Environmental and Regional
Equity (PERE), and reflect Orange County. The
specific data sources are listed in the table
shown here.
In the following pages we describe the
estimation techniques and adjustments made
in creating the underlying database of
regional equity indicators and provide more
detail on the terms and methodology used.
The reader should bear in mind that while
only a single region is profiled here, many of
the analytical choices in generating the
underlying data and analyses were made with
an eye towards replicating the analyses in
other regions and updating them over time.
Thus, while more regionally specific data may
be
available for some indicators, the data in this
profile draws from our regional equity
indicators database which provides data that
are comparable and replicable over time.
