Helpful Data for the San Diego Fires

  • In an effort to make more resources and data available to the community in regards to the San Diego fires we’ve uploaded a decent chunk of data to GeoCommons. We are tagging all the data with “San Diego fire” and will be updating GeoCommons as more data becomes available.

USDA/ERS Data - Creative Class County Codes

  • Our analysis
    of recent development in rural U.S. counties, which focuses
    on natural amenities as quality-of-life indicators, supports
    the creative class thesis. A repetition for urban counties
    also shows a strong relationship between creative class presence
    and growth, although natural amenities play a smaller role. However,
    our results depend on a recast creative class measure, which
    excludes from the original Florida measure many occupations
    with low creativity requirements and those involved primarily
    in economic reproduction (i.e., numbers proportional to population).
    Our measure conforms more closely to the concept of creative
    class and proves to be more highly associated with regional development
    than the original Florida measure.
