“Black women in #Connecticut are 7 times more likely than white men or white women to say that it is likely they will have to leave their homes in the next 2 months due to being behind on housing payments, according to the 2021 DataHaven #WellbeingSurvey.” — DataHaven (@ctdata ) #evictions #HousingCrisis #nnip

@ritahamad @Juliaraifman @keds_economist @rbreich @gregggonsalves The DataHaven Community #WellbeingSurvey, a very large survey of randomly-selected CT adults, finds a similarly-sized effect on mood, with the percent of people who report being mostly happy, in the summer (July to September) of each year:

Adults with kids:
2018: 69%
2020: 66%
2021: 75%
2022: 72%

Adults without kids:
2018: 70%
2020: 70%
2021: 69%
2022: 72%

The report uses extensive data from DataHaven's Town Equity Reports and #WellbeingSurvey throughout, in order to paint a portrait of conditions that impact #Hartford’s children and families. It also has many recommendations to address key findings.

ICYMI last month, we updated the DataHaven Communities pages with the latest 2021 #Census 5Y ACS data, released just this week. Although many of our other resources, such as our Town Equity Reports, are more comprehensive, these pages are quite popular too. They were designed by a group of national data experts to be super easy to navigate and use!

Available for all 169 #Connecticut towns, DataHaven's town equity reports reports disaggregate data from the #2020Census, ACS microdata files, DataHaven Community #WellbeingSurvey record-level files, and other federal and state sources to create relevant town-level information that is not typically available from standard public databases.

We have also created reports on request for custom-defined geographic regions, such as agency service areas.

(2/n) Transportation costs are a major issue in #Connecticut, especially for bus riders. According to the DataHaven #WellbeingSurvey, 34% of adults who primarily use the public bus system to get around are food insecure, compared to 11% of adults who mostly drive themselves and 10% who take the train. Similar associations are seen across all racial/ethnic groups (for example, among white adults, the percentages are 27%, 8%, and 7%, respectively). cc @whateversusan @gregggonsalves
