In recent data, population and housing counts come from the 2010 Decennial Census while the distribution of demographic attributes come from the 2006-2010 and 2011-2015 5-year American Community Surveys. This report applies 2010 Census tract-approximations of neighborhood boundaries to Census data from 1950 to 2015 in order to compare consistent geographies over time. Note that some smaller neighborhoods are not distinguishable in tract-level data. Chinatown and the Leather District are included here with Downtown. Bay Village is included with the South End. The Harbor Islands are not included in the graphs, but are described in a table in the last section of the report. For a full description of the methodology, please see Historical Boston in Context: Neighborhoods 1950- 2015 available on the BPDA website. 1.
