Residential Population: Whose Home?

The focus of our demographic study is on Roosevelt Avenue. Roosevelt Avenue runs through the neighborhood of Corona (including North Corona) and serves as a border between the neighborhoods of Jackson Heights and Elmhurst. Thus, the demographics of three neighborhoods, Corona, Jackson Heights, and Elmhurst were examined during the process of data collection for areas, city blocks, surrounding Roosevelt Avenue. This was done so via census tracks surrounding the avenue of interest. The exact census tracts are highlighted below.
