Cejst
CEJST v2.0 disadvantaged community classification for 74,134 US census tracts (2010 boundaries). 28,569 tracts (38.5%) identified as disadvantaged. Classification uses 32 burden categories across 8 domains: climate change, energy, health/air, housing, legacy pollution, transportation, water/wastewater, workforce. Each flag column indicates whether that burden category triggered the disadvantaged status. Pairs with cejst_burdens for raw metric values.
