This Indicator measures the percent of curbs with curb ramps that are not modern, indicating that they are non-compliant. Modern curb ramps should have all the proper elements: low slope and cross-slope, adequate width, level top and bottom landings, a detectable warning surface, and they should be directional and clear of obstructions in the curb ramp area. This is a citywide Indicator that measures conditions for individuals with physical disabilities and limited mobility.

This Indicator measures the rate of homicides in Oakland by race/ethnicity. Rate is calculated as the number of homicides per 100,000 people of the same race/ethnicity (of any age).

This Indicator measures the residential parcels that required a Level 1 or Level 2 evaluation of the group floor for a soft-story retrofit. Potential soft story buildings were identified through a 2008 screening of buildings permitted for construction before January 1, 1991, with parking or commercial on the ground floor, with five or more residential units, without previous soft story retrofits, and at least two stories. Some of these buildings were marked exempt or had incomplete evaluations, so this Indicator only measures those that were officially identified as soft story in 2014. In future years, we hope to measure the percent of identified soft story buildings that have been retrofitted.

This Indicator measures the age-adjusted rate of chronic diseases preventable hospitalizations. “Preventable hospitalizations” are inpatient hospital stays that could have been avoided with improved access to and quality of outpatient care. They are measured by prevention quality indicators (PQIs). PQI #92, the chronic composite, is a summary measure which captures preventable hospitalizations from diabetes-related, respiratory-related and circulatory system-related preventable hospitalizations for adults, such as uncontrolled diabetes, asthma, and heart failure.(Source:http://www.healthyalamedacounty.org/indicators/index/view?indicatorId=2480&locale Id=238)

This Indicator compares zip codes in which more than 60% of the population is non-White to those in which more than 60% of the population is White. The third category of zip codes is those in which the population is racially and ethnically mixed. Data is from 2013 through the third quarter of 2015.

This Indicator measures the percent by race/ethnicity of Prime contractors for construction and professional services contracts who received under $100,000. Additional data is provided on the average amount received by these contractors. Data is from fiscal year 2015-16 and the date used to assign contracts to a fiscal year is the date that the compliance analysis was completed, or the review date. The dollar amounts represent the initial award; any negotiated bid amounts or change orders are not taken into account. The initial award is adjusted to how much of the total contract went to the Prime as opposed to Subprime contractors.

The measurement is percent of teachers who turned over between the 2016-17 and 2017-18 school years at OUSD schools (data from charters and private schools were not available). Turnover percents are calculated at a school level out of the total number of teachers at that school. Schools are placed into groups based on the racial and ethnic breakdown of their student population (see note below data table for full explanation of grouping). Average teacher turnover percent is then calculated for each group of schools.

Unemployment is measured by the percent of the labor force that is unemployed. The labor force includes all individuals aged 16 and older who are either employed or unemployed and looking for work. Individuals in the armed forces are excluded from this measure.

This Indicator measures the rate of use of force on subjects per 100,000 people in Oakland by race/ethnicity. Note: There were 10 incidents of use of force that were on a crowd. For these incidents, the number and race/ethnicity of subjects were not available. Therefore, each was counted as one incident in the Citywide total. This will somewhat undercount the true total of people subjected to use of force and will potentially misrepresent the true racial and ethnic breakdown as well.

This Indicator measures the percent of business addresses that have been identified as “vacant” by the United States Postal Service (USPS) for at least two years. Data is collected and aggregated at the census tract level by the USPS on a quarterly basis.

This Indicator measures the percent of individuals who live in households in which at least one household member received SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) benefits in the past 12 months, by race/ethnicity.
