These three maps provide an integrated analysis of socioeconomic well-being and change in Nashville. The analysis centers on three key, interrelated areas: 1) Gentrification Pressure: Community Change and Gentrification, 2) Economic Opportunity: Wages and Economic Opportunity, and 3) Community Vulnerability: Poverty and Social Risk.
Together, these maps function as a tool to visualize the complex interplay between investment, infrastructure, and concentrated disadvantage across Nashville's neighborhoods.
To help you get started quickly, this infographic provides a visual breakdown of the tool's core components. It summarizes The 3 Missions—the key socioeconomic analyses driving the map—and how to use the Mappler controls to explore data density and layer overlaps. For a complete, detailed explanation of every mission, layer, and technical function, please consult the Metro Nashville Community Mapping Manual by clicking this link.
