Opportunity Area Data Report

This report provides additional data to support the case that a proposed acquisition project may qualify as an Opportunity Area by serving communities that lack access to open space and experience demonstrated hardships. Use the Opportunity Areas map to find a property.

Please visit the Conservation Futures match waiver webpage for an explanation of Opportunity Areas. Additional links to potentially relevant data sources may be found in the Additional Data Sources for Opportunity Area Projects document. For more information about using this data with particular grant programs, please visit the Conservation Futures match waiver or Healthy Communities and Parks Fund webpages.

How to interpret percentile
Percentiles tell you how your location ranks for that characteristic in relation to all other locations in King County, if they were ranked from 0 to 100.

For example, if your location is at the 80th percentile for poverty rate, it means that 80% of census tracts have a lower poverty rate than your location, and only 20% of census tracts have a higher poverty rate.

 

Illustration of percentile ranking from 0 to 100th percentile, with an example of 80th percentile being a higher poverty rate than 80 percent of other tracts in the county

 

  • 0 – 33rd percentiles indicate lower level of the characteristic/trait
  • 34 – 66th percentiles indicate middle level of the characteristic/trait
  • 67 – 100th percentiles indicate higher level of the characteristic/trait
