Oregon Socioeconomic Risk Tool.
An interactive dashboard mapping community-level risk factors across every Oregon census tract — built to identify where external stresses on human health, such as natural disasters or disease outbreaks, will hit hardest.
The Oregon Socioeconomic Risk Tool combines the CDC/ATSDR Social Vulnerability Index, U.S. Census Bureau data, and ACS 5-Year Estimates into a single census-tract-level view of Oregon. It allows public-health officials, community organizations, policymakers, and Oregonians themselves to see which communities may require additional support before, during, or after emergency events.
Themes tracked
- Socioeconomic status — poverty, unemployment, per-capita income, educational attainment
- Household composition & disability — older adults, children, disability prevalence, single-parent households
- Minority status & language — minority population share and English-language proficiency
- Housing type & transportation — multi-unit and mobile-home shares, crowding, vehicle access, group quarters
