Neighborhood Indicators
This is the census tract that makes up our neighborhood.
This census tract is not a perfect fit for our neighborhood boundaries, but we can see that when we overlay on top of a map that the area covers all of our neighborhood boundary except the part that is in Fitchburg, and the excess area is mainly undeveloped save for the Highland Manor area, so it remains a decent representation of our neighborhood.
