The 2-Digit Hydrologic Units, a component of the Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD), depict the major water resource regions of the United States. A water resource region is the first level of classification used by the United States Geological Survey to divide and sub-divide the United States into successively smaller hydrologic units. This first level of classification divides the United States into 22 major geographic areas, or regions. These geographic areas contain either the drainage area of a major river or the combined drainage areas of a series of rivers.
Gross Domestic Product
This layer displays the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) produced within each U.S. county and the percent change in GDP from the previous year. GDP is the monetary value of all the goods and service produced within a county and is a measure of economic activity. The growth rate of GDP is the most popular indicator of overall economic health.
Watershed Boundary Dataset, 8-Digit Hydrologic Units
The 8-Digit Hydrologic Units, a component of the Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD), depict the fourth level hydrologic subdivision of the United States. A hydrologic unit can accept surface water from upstream drainage areas and may define a drainage area with single or multiple outlet points. An 8-digit hydrologic unit, or sub-basin, is a common management unit for water resource planning and analysis. There are 2,362 8-digit hydrologic units with an average size of 1,783 square miles (4,619 sq. km.).
Head Start Facilities
This layer displays locations of Head Start facilities in the United States. The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) identifies head start facilities as either a center, an early childhood center, a seasonal / migrant center, or any combination of these designations.
Drought Severity, 2017-2019
This layer displays the percentage of weeks in Any Drought based on analysis of US Drought Monitor weekly drought data files for years 2017-2019.
Watershed Boundary Dataset, 12-Digit Hydrologic Units
The 12-Digit Hydrologic Units, a component of the Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD), depict the sixth level hydrologic subdivision of the United States. A hydrologic unit can accept surface water from upstream drainage areas and may define a drainage area with single or multiple outlet points. A 12-digit hydrologic unit, or subwatershed, supports water resource management and planning activities at a localized and site-specific level. There are 101,779 12-digit hydrologic units with an average size of 41 square miles (107 sq. km.).
Fatal Motor Vehicle Crashes by Location, 2018
This layer displays the location or intersection of fatal crashes occurring in 2018. This layer can be toggled to view fatal crashes involving a drunk driver, and crashes with pedestrian fatalities.
Uninsured Population by County
Layer displays information about the insurance status of the population age 0-64. The data are from the 2018 Small Area Health Insurance Estimates, released by the US Census Bureau on April 09, 2020.
Watershed Boundary Dataset, 10-Digit Hydrologic Units
The 10-Digit Hydrologic Units, a component of the Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD), depict the fifth level hydrologic subdivision of the United States. A hydrologic unit can accept surface water from upstream drainage areas and may define a drainage area with single or multiple outlet points. A 10-digit hydrologic unit, or watershed, divides sub-basins into smaller management areas. There are 18,679 10-digit hydrologic units with an average size of 226 square miles (585 sq. km.).
Fatal Motor Vehicle Crashes by County, 2014-2018
This layer displays the number and rate of fatalities from motor vehicle crashes occurring between 2014 and 2018, aggregated by county. Unlike typical mortality data, this data layer represents the location of the fatal crash, and not the county of the decedent’s residence.
