For residents and other stakeholders of the area to keep track of progress over the implementation period, this dashboard will be updated quarterly with key indicators for the project. Indicators were chosen to correspond to each of the project’s three core goals.
Note for geography of indicators: Some of the indicators are for the broader PSO footprint while some of the indicators are specifically for Perkins Homes households only. Data derived from the U.S. Census and American Community Survey are for Census Tract 301.
