Maps of NYS by Census Tract. In each of the panels, we show the census tracts across NY State according to a 5 primary descriptors. In Panel A, we show the distance of census tracts to the nearest pharmacies in km. Additionally, major cities areas are outlined in rectangles (red = Buffalo, light green = Rochester, magenta = Syracuse, gray = Albany, light blue = New York City). In Panel B, we show the census tracts stratified by quartiles of poverty (1st quartile = least poverty, 4th quartile = highest poverty). In Panel C, D, and E, we show the quartiles of % of the population in that census tract with higher education (i.e. anything greater than or equal to an associate’s degree), Hispanic/Latino origin, or Black/African American Origin, respectively. For these panels, a 1st quartile census tract indicates the smallest % of individuals with that trait and the 4th quartile has the largest % of individuals with that trait.
