Description: Index of people’s exposure to neighbors of different races and ethnicities
Additional notes:
Racially and ethnically diverse neighborhoods are hallmarks of inclusive communities. This set of metrics is constructed separately for each racial or ethnic group and reports the average share of that group’s neighbors who are members of other racial or ethnic groups. It reports the shares of people who are Black or Hispanic in the census tract of the average white person, the shares of people who are white or Hispanic in the census tract of the average Black person, and the shares of people who are Black or white in the census tract of the average Hispanic person. A higher value indicates greater exposure to people of different races and ethnicities.
