Description: The Economic Hardship Index (EHI) provides a comprehensive measure of economic conditions using six socioeconomic indicators from the U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey (ACS) data, including dependency, education, unemployment, income level, crowded housing, and poverty.
- Dependency: the percentage of the population that are under the age of 18 or over the age of 64
- Education: the percentage of the population over age 25 who have less than a high school education
- Unemployment: the percentage of the civilian population over the age of 16 who were unemployed
- Income Level: Median earning for the populations age 16 years and older with earnings (dollars)
- Crowded Housing: the percentage of occupied housing units with more than one person per room
- Poverty: the percent of people living below the federal poverty level
Across the state of Florida, county level estimates of these six indicators were standardized to give them equal weight when combined into a composite index. The index scores represent the normalized sum of the six indicators (also normalized) and range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating worse economic conditions.
