COVID-19 Vulnerability and Recovery Index
The COVID-19 Vulnerability and Recovery Index compares all ZIP Codes in California along various indices of vulnerability. The Index is an overall composite of a Risk Score, a Severity Score, and a Recovery Need Score, each based on a number of indicators, including the average of Black, Latino, American Indian/Alaskan Native and Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander populations, the percent of the population qualified as essential workers, the percent of population under 200% of FPL, percent of population in overcrowded housing units, population ages 75 and older living in poverty, the unemployment rate, uninsured population data and heart attack and diabetes rates.
ZIP Codes in the 0 to 19th percentile are in the ‘Lowest’ Vulnerability and Recovery Index category, those in the next-highest quintiles are ‘Low’, then ‘Moderate’, while those in the 60th to 79th percentile are ‘High’ and 80th percentile and above are ‘Highest’ in terms of vulnerability to COVID-19 and need for recovery assistance from the effects of COVID-19 on the population.
SMC area ZIP Codes were within ‘Lowest’ to ‘Moderate’ levels of vulnerability and recovery. Within the service area, Tustin 92780 ranked the highest in vulnerability, at 44.9% of California ZIP Codes.
