DCI GIS Youth Corps
2004 Housing and Environmental Conditions Survey
| The purpose of the project is to provide a snapshot of housing and environmental conditions in a neighborhoods defined by police scout car area 9-6. The focus of the data collection, mapping and analysis work is to identify “place-specific,” public safety problems that detract from residents’ quality of life. These include: dangerous properties, abandoned vehicles, and illegal dumping locations, among others. This is the third year of collecting data for this Eastside neighborhood. Data are mapped to specific properties using a property ownership database from the City of Detroit. A series of maps will be produced to illustrate the presence of dangerous properties, abandoned vehicles, and illegal dumping in these neighborhoods and changes in these problems from 2003 to 2004. | ![]() |
