How does racial diversity of the Lower Garden District neighborhood compare to other Orleans neighborhoods?
In order to better visualize patterns of racial segregation in New Orleans, we mapped percent of population of different races by Census block group. (A block group is smaller than a neighborhood, and typically contains between 600 and 3,000 people.) Looking at this information by block group allows one to not only analyze racial composition across neighborhoods, but also look at smaller patterns of segregation within a given neighborhood.
