<br /> <br />Orange County 92 25-29 Regional AFH <br /> <br />3. Transportation <br />This analysis describes any disparities in access to transportation related to costs and <br />access to public transit by protected class groups. <br />Table 6 includes a Transit Index, which measures the likelihood that residents will utilize <br />public transportation. Higher index values indicate better access to public transit in a <br />neighborhood. Table 6 also includes a Low Transportation Cost Index, which measures the <br />cost of transportation in a neighborhood. Higher index values indicate lower transportation <br />costs. Transportation costs may be low in a neighborhood due to better access to public <br />transportation, or to the density of housing, services, and employment, or contributing <br />factors. <br />Table 6 shows the following regarding disparities in access to transit and to neighborhoods <br />with low transportation costs in each of the participating jurisdictions: <br />• In the region, access to transit and access to neighborhoods with low transportation <br />costs are relatively high for all groups, though there are significant disparities <br />between racial/ethnic groups. Both indices are lowest for White residents and <br />highest for Black residents and are higher across all groups for individuals living <br />below the FPL. <br />• In the Orange County Urban County jurisdictions, access to transit is slightly lower <br />for all groups compared to the region but is still relatively high. There are also <br />significant disparities, with AAPI residents having the best access, and White <br />residents having the least access. Access is slightly higher across groups for people <br />living below the FPL. Access to neighborhoods with low transportation costs is lower <br />for all groups compared to the region overall but is still relatively high. There are <br />some disparities between groups, with Hispanic residents having the best access , <br />and White residents having the least access. Access is slightly higher across groups <br />for people living below the FPL, except for Hispanic residents living below the FPL <br />who have similar access to the overall Hispanic population. <br />• In Aliso Viejo, access to transit is low for all groups, and lowest for Black and Native <br />American residents living below the FPL. Access to neighborhoods with low <br />transportation costs is relatively high for all groups, with small disparities between <br />groups—access is lowest for Black and Native American residents living below the <br />FPL. <br />• In Anaheim, access to transit and access to neighborhoods with low transportation <br />costs are high for all groups. <br />• In Buena Park, access to transit and access to neighborhoods with low transportation <br />costs are high for all groups. <br />• In Costa Mesa, access to transit and access to neighborhoods with low <br />transportation costs are high for all groups. <br />EXHIBIT 6
