*Note: Each year of available data shown above is a 5-year estimate, or an average of data collected over a five year period. 5-year estimates are used to increase the reliability of the data at small geographies like neighborhoods and census tracts. The years shown on the NDSC map represent the final year of the five year average (e.g. “2010” represents 2006-2010 data, “2011” represents 2007-2011 data, and so on). For the most impactful comparison of data over time, the ACS recommends comparing non-overlapping years (e.g. 2010-14 with 2015-19).
The percentage of residents in a neighborhood working in a particular sector has a variety of applications for different economic actors. For policymakers, these variables can show an economic and employment profile in a neighborhood, providing information about potential health and education resources that may be important to workers in some sectors more than others. Comparing these variables with the number of jobs in a particular industry provides information about which sectors are employing the most local residents in their area, which can affect issues related to childcare, transportation, and the environment.
