The Community Explorer How to Inform Effectively Policy on U.S. Diversity with County Level Data

Abstract

The Community Explorer provides novel insightintoon the different characteristics of the U.S. population that can be used in policy design and impact assessment. More broadly, it increases the understanding of socio-economic gaps and potential markets in the U.S.. More specifically, it synthesizes the information of 751 variables across 3142 counties from the Census Bureau’s American Community Survey using machine learning methods, into 17 communities. Each one of these communities has a distinctive profile that combines demographic, economic, and many other behavior determinants while not being geographically bounded
