[quote=Anonymous]Since demographic (race or ethnicity) data will no longer be provided or accounted for, it’s on the affected neighborhoods to watch for any boundary moves that may unintentionally segregate by race/ethnicity. Proposals or policy that concern race can be very controversial, especially given the current legal climate, so it’s understandable APS is moving away from using that data. And ethnic diversity may not be a value everyone shares equally. Socioeconomic data will still be used in boundary moves. So that data should be publicly available, and may in fact serve as an imperfect proxy for race/ethnicity. [/quote]
