EnviroAtlas - Paterson, NJ - Demographics by Block Group
Dataset Identification:
Resource Abstract:
This EnviroAtlas dataset is a summary of key demographic groups for the EnviroAtlas community. This dataset was produced by
the US EPA to support research and online mapping activities related to EnviroAtlas. EnviroAtlas (https://www.epa.gov/enviroatlas)
allows the user to interact with a web-based, easy-to-use, mapping application to view and analyze multiple ecosystem services
for the contiguous United States. The dataset is available as downloadable data (https://edg.epa.gov/data/Public/ORD/EnviroAtlas)
or as an EnviroAtlas map service. Additional descriptive information about each attribute in this dataset can be found in
its associated EnviroAtlas Fact Sheet (https://www.epa.gov/enviroatlas/enviroatlas-fact-sheets).

The purpose of this dataset is to highlight areas where the population is more vulnerable due to age or economic disadvantage.
These populations may be at a higher risk for detrimental impacts to their well-being. The overall goal of EnviroAtlas is
to employ and develop the best available science to map indicators of ecosystem services production, demand, and drivers for
the nation.
