Analytics Tool to Understand COVID-19 Economic Impacts and Evaluate Programmatic Options
The City of Seattle seeks to answer the question: 鈥淗ow might we understand the economic fallout of COVID-19 from a data perspective and identify where interventions could be most effective?鈥 Our team experimented with locational and demographic data to gain a comprehensive view of the economic鈥痠mpacts鈥痳esidents face due to COVID-19. These deliverables include block-specific maps and predictive regression models to see which areas and groups are most economically vulnerable to COVID-19. The resulting deliverables assist City Departments in making data-informed decisions to help shape鈥疌ity鈥痯olicies and programs鈥痑nd inform the larger city ecosystem of community-based organizations.
