ACROSS THESE COMMUNITIES, 70% OF RESIDENTS LIVE IN ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE COMMUNITIES AND THE MEDIAN INCOME ($73,393 ANNUALLY) IS 85% OF THE STATE MEDIAN INCOME. 34% OF THE RESIDENTS OF THESE COMMUNITIES SPEAK A LANGUAGE OTHER THAN ENGLISH AT HOME, 60% OF BUILDINGS ARE MULTIFAMILY BUILDINGS AND 51% OF RESIDENTS ARE RENTERS.
