Opportunity Index

The Opportunity Index is a measurement that assesses how conducive a community is to helping residents thrive. It considers factors like educational quality, economic opportunities, health, safety, and overall living conditions. A higher score indicates a neighborhood where individuals have better chances to succeed and improve their quality of life. Essentially, it provides a snapshot of the resources and conditions that influence a person’s ability to reach their potential, helping communities identify areas needing improvement to promote equitable growth and well-being.
