Neighbourhood demographics are for the census tract containing the school and may not reflect the student body exactly (students can live in adjacent tracts). Environmental proximity is informational — none of these metrics mean the school itself is unsafe. Sources: US Census ACS 5-year, EPA Superfund NPL, EPA TRI, EPA Brownfields, EPA SDWIS, EPA AQS.
