This layer is a scoring surface measuring the level of "completeness" of areas within the City of Portland. Completeness is defined by a neighborhood's proximity to various amenities, such as grocery stores, parks and recreation facilities, commercial services, elementary schools, pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure, and transit. The scores were generated by overlaying a series of network service areas and density layers, then adding the scores to arrive at a cumulative, normalized, zero-to-100 index.
-- Additional Information:
Category: Planning
Purpose: To determine areas that have high and low levels of "completeness," which can serve to understand patterns of completeness across Portland, as well as how to address under-served areas of Portland.
Update Frequency: Yearly
