Socioeconomic GISMap Creation – Health Expenditures vs Infant Mortality

Socioeconomic GISAnalysis of Migration Flows in the State of Georgia using PUMS and LEHD

Dataset

PUMS (ACS – 1 year 2013):

To find patterns in the migration flow

QWI (2013) to estimate

the number of jobs from the

County level to the PUMA

level

Pros – More updated data

Cons – Only 1% of

population sample

Pros – It is complementary

workforce data

Cons – It has to be mapped

into PUMA areas

Variables Calculation

Migration Ratio (from PUMAS) Jobs inside the PUMA area

Variables Calculation

Distance between PUMAs

The gravity index for each of the Georgia PUMAS was calculated considering the contributions of every “origin” PUMA, despite the PUMA belongs or not to Georgia state.
