Q-31 List down the socio economic data needed to evaluate project

impacts.

Socio-economic data

 are data about humans, human activities, and the space and/or structures
used to conduct human activities
 specific classes include
o demographics (age, sex, ethnic and marital status, education)
o housing (quality, cost)

 e.g. number of persons leaving area in 5 years
o also by socio-economic grouping
 e.g. persons aged 5 through 14 years
o examples of aggregated data are:
 number of persons, average income, median housing value for a
census tract
 number of commute trips and average trip length from a
suburban traffic zone to the central business district
Cross-sectional and longitudinal data

 recall from Unit 6

o cross-sectional data gives information on many areas for the same
single slice or interval of time

 e.g. numbers migrating out of each state in the period 1971-75
o longitudinal data gives information on one or more areas for a series
of times
 e.g. average income for State of New York from 1970-1988 by
year
