Incarceration and Inequality Data Explorer
The Incarceration and Inequality Data Explorer is an interactive tool that maps the complex geography of incarceration and economic conditions across the United States. It provides critical data for community members and policymakers advocating for change. The tool allows users to compare incarceration rates and key economic indicators across U.S. counties and access detailed county-level profiles on the intersection of economic opportunity and mass incarceration. It is designed to help advocates and policymakers enhance their understanding of the geography of incarceration and economic outcomes—both nationally and within their counties.
The data explorer is a one-stop shop for those seeking to learn about incarceration and economic distress in their county, generating buy-in for data-informed campaign materials and developing a compelling case for change. It also serves to target resources and find opportunities for collaboration by comparing conditions across a collection of counties, an entire state, or nationally.
