Community Assessment
a. Community Assessment ‐ 25 points/25%
• Provides a description of the community based on the findings from the team’s windshield survey.
Baltimore city presents a clear contrast between a developed downtown area (inner harbor, Federal Hill, Locust Point, Fells Point) and its slummy surroundings. Although Baltimore is home to some beautiful historic neighborhoods as highlighted above, most of Baltimore city is marked by its overwhelming number of un-kept neighborhoods with boarded-up vacant row of homes and unsanitary appearance.
Baltimore city is also marked by its history conveyed through art pieces throughout the city: monuments, paintings, calligraphy. Despite being a city center, Baltimore city has many green lands in terms of parks and recreation areas.
Manufacturing, healthcare, and transportation are the most represented industries in Baltimore city. It is home to 11 hospitals, with the most renown ones being part of the Johns Hopkins and University of Maryland Health Systems.

A vast majority of the population in Baltimore city appears young. As supported by the referenced 2016 survey from the Baltimore city health department, the over 30% of the population in Baltimore city is between the ages of 25 and 44 years. About 53% of the population is female and 47% male. There is also a big racial disparity with close to 63% of the population being black, 30% white, and 7% of other races.

I think our Aggregate population should be the African American community because they combine all 4 elements/risk factors. What do you think? Thats a good idea, i totally agree (tatiana)
