Datasets of neighborhoods for New Haven, Hartford/West Hartford, Stamford, and Bridgeport. Some tracts cross between more than one neighborhood; use weight column for aggregating values such as populations. Previously this included a block group version for New Haven, which I've removed; I'm also renaming nhv_tracts to new_haven_tracts for consistency.

11-digit FIPS code of the tract

Details

These were updated to 2020 tract definitions. There are still 2019 versions of weight tables with names ending in "19"; for the time being, those will stick around for use with pre-2020 data.

Note also that there was an error in the tables for Stamford and Hartford/West Hartford where a few neighborhoods were given extra tracts from outside the town boundaries. This particularly would affect counts, such as population totals by neighborhood, and was based on poor alignment in doing spatial overlays. Fixed 5/22/2024.
