The Westside Community Data Dashboard is an interactive tool coupling community statistics with maps, and it was developed to give community stakeholders an opportunity to better understand strides being made in the Westside neighborhoods. This dashboard provides data on general demographics and Westside Future Fund’s four impact areas: mixed-income communities, safety and security, cradle to career education, and community health and wellness. You can access and learn more about the dashboard here.
