Additional details regarding <br />disproportionate needs by racial/ethnic group are included in section NA-15, NA-20 and NA-25. <br />Are there any areas in the jurisdiction where racial or ethnic minorities or low-income <br />families are concentrated? (include a definition of "concentration") <br />There is a high concentration of Hispanic households concentrated in census block group 6102.03. The <br />attached maps indicate that while low income households are primary located in certain census block <br />groups they do not meet the high concentration definition. <br />What are the characteristics of the market in these areas/neighborhoods? <br />Although there is not a high concentration there is a higher population of households in certain block <br />groups as shown on the attached maps. The market characteristics in these neighborhoods include older <br />housing stock, a higher number of rental properties and close proximity to transit corridors and <br />amenities. <br />Are there any community assets in these areas/neighborhoods? <br />There are several community assets located in the neighborhoods and census block groups indicated in <br />the narrative above and the attached maps.
