1. LICENSED CHILDCARE CENTERS IN SAN DIEGO By Christine Tung

2. Mapping Objective  San Diego is composed of community planning areas (CPAs).  Maps will look at:  licensed childcare centers, which serve children until kindergarten (0-4).  the capacity of existing licensed childcare centers to see what CPAs are underserved.  Maps will compare median family income and lack of service to identify CPAs in greatest need of licensed childcare centers.

7. Skills used:  Layout1: Licensed Childcare Centers in San Diego Community Planning Areas  insert map  geoprocessing: joined of median family income to San Diego census tracts; spatial join of San Diego census tracts to San Diego CPAs; clipped licensed childcare centers to San Diego CPAs; dissolved freeway layer so northbound and southbound labels became one for each freeway.  Layout 2: Capacity Licensed Childcare Centers in San Diego Community Planning Areas  insert map  aggregated attribute fields: created capacity of childcare centers within CPA by adding capacity of each center; created percent of children served by summing total number of children 0-4 in a CPA and then divided capacity of CPA by total of children 0-4.  graduated symbol: after aggregating total capacity of childcare centers within CPA, represented capacity with graduated symbols.  Layout 3: Children 0 to 4 Not Served by Licensed Childcare  insert map  attribute sub-sets selection: created layer of CPAs where less than 20% of children 0-4 are served by licensed childcare centers, queried PCTpop0to4 <0.2  graduated symbol: represented median family income with graduated symbol.  Layout 4:  insert map  index: created new index for CPAs in most need of licensed childcare centers based on income and percent of 0 to 4 year olds not served, based on natural breaks determined in ArcMap (income 100=6)  attribute sub-sets selection: created layer of CPAs with more than 20% of population 0 to 4 served. PCTpop0to4 > 0.2; created layer of CPAs with less than 20% served PCTpop0to4 < 0.2.  boundary sub-sets selection: created layer of licensed childcare centers within CPAs with over 20% of population 0 to 4 served.

8. Tasks for the Final  Further look at CPAs where less than 20% of 0 to 4 population are served by licensed childcare centers.  Possible next steps:  look at racial demographics of CPAs  look within CPAs where less than 20% of 0 to 4 population can be served by licensed childcare centers further break these down into census tracts to identify specific demographics of these areas and location of these sites
