Residential Lead Paint Exposure in Omaha

This project examines the extent to which the citizens of Omaha have been disproportionately exposed to lead-based paint. Using census data and the Douglas County Assessor's office, we've created interactive maps depicting unequal lead paint exposure that readers can examine and evaluate for themselves. From the introduction of lead paint to the present day, the burden of its effects have not been distributed equally on the citizens of Omaha.
