  • Indicators of Success and Challenges in Northern Virginia Northern Virginia Is a Diverse, Growing Region with a Well-Educated Population and Strong Economy

  • The Status of Women in the Charlotte Metropolitan Area, North Carolina
    IWPR #R362 January 2013 The Status of Women in the Charlotte Metropolitan Area, North Carolina Women in the Charlotte metropolitan area,i and in North Carolina as a whole, have made much progress during the last few decades. The majority of women work—many in professional jobs—and women are essential to the economic health of their communities. Yet, there are some ways in which women’s status still lags behind men’s, and not all women are prospering equally. This briefing paper provides basic information about the status of women the Charlotte area, focusing on women’s earnings and workforce participation, level of education, poverty, access to child care, and health status. It also provides background demographic information about women in the region. Basic Facts About Women in the Charlotte Area The Charlotte metropolitan statistical area—defined here to include Cabarrus, Gaston, Lincoln, Mecklenburg, Rowan, and Union counties—has a relatively diverse population of women and girls. Thirty-eight percent are from a minority racial or ethnic group, which is a slightly higher share than in the state as a whole (35 percent; Figure 1 and Table 1). The Charlotte area also has a larger share of foreign- born women and girls than in the state overall due to rapid growth in its immigrant population in recent years (Smith and Furuseth 2008). One in ten women and girls in this area is an immigrant, compared with seven percent of women and girls in North Carolina as a whole (Table 1). Figure 1. Distribution of Women and Girls by Race and Ethnicity in the Charlotte Metropolitan Area, All Ages, 2008–2010 3% 0.3% 2% 9% White Black Hispanic 23% Asian Ameican 62% American Indian Other Notes: Racial categories are exclusive: white, not Hispanic; black, not Hispanic; Asian American, not Hispanic; American Indian, not Hispanic; and other, not Hispanic.

On average, Arlington’s population has grown at about 1% per year since 2000. ­ Arlington County population estimates are based on housing unit counts and residential construction activity, which is closely monitored for changes and reported quarterly through the County’s development tracking reports. The U.S. Census Bureau also produces estimates at the county level that are higher due in part to the population migration methodology utilized by the U.S. Census Bureau. Historically, Arlington County’s estimates are closer than the Census Bureau’s estimates to the actual Decennial Census counts.

  • Building Northern Virginia's Future
    Building Northern Virginia’s Future: Policies to Create a More Affordable, Equitable Housing Supply JANUARY 2019 A Letter from the Executive Director Transportation, housing opportunities at all price points, and a skilled workforce are acknowledged as the key elements of a ‘three-legged stool’ that support regional economic prosperity in the Washington metropolitan region. In the spring of 2018, the region entered into a landmark agreement to provide dedicated funding for Metro. Since that time, regional advocates have turned their attention to housing supply and affordability. In September 2018, the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments (COG) released a report showing that the Washington region must increase the number of planned housing units by over 100,000 homes between now and 2045 ‘to sustain economic growth and improve quality of life.’ As Robert White, the newly elected Chairman of the COG Board of Directors stated: “I can think of no higher regional priority than to ensure a sufficient supply of affordably-priced housing for our current residents as well as the workers we need to fill the new jobs anticipated in the future.” Building Northern Virginia’s Future: Policies to Create a More Affordable, Equitable Housing Supply is the latest in a series of studies released by the Northern Virginia Affordable Housing Alliance to address specific housing challenges facing our region. Our report shows that after keeping pace with population growth from 1990-2010, housing production in the inner region of Washington, DC significantly lagged population growth from 2010-2016 – 7.0% population growth vs. 2.7% housing units. A number of factors have contributed to this under-performing market, namely: lengthy site planning processes; more restrictive zoning regulations; and a shortage of skilled construction labor.

In times of great economic uncertainty and demographic change, Northern Virginia is under tremendous pressure to offer the most efficient and accessible health and wellness programs. We hope this directory facilitates and supports strategic partnerships and key alliances among these and other groups. And we hope that the groups listed will use this information to direct their clients to additional resources which they may need. The Foundation invited nonprofit organizations and government agencies that offer health and wellness programs in Northern Virginia to submit information for inclusion in this directory. Our goal was to identify community-based programs that work with individuals and groups in one or more of the following ways: Adopting healthy behaviors and/or reducing health risks Increasing self-care skills Improving management of common ailments Using health care services more effectively and/or improving understanding of medical procedures and therapeutic regimens We only included programs located in and serving Northern Virginia, operating under the auspices of a nonprofit or government agency and open to the public.

NORTH CAROLINA ON EXCEPTIONS TO THE PRELIMINARY AND SECOND REPORTS OF THE SPECIAL MASTER No. 132, Orig. Argued January 11, 2010—Decided June 1, 2010 In 1986, Congress granted its consent to the Southeast Interstate Low- Level Radioactive Waste Management Compact (Compact), which was entered into by Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia. The Compact is administered by a Commission, which was required, inter alia, to “identif[y] a host State for the development of a [new] regional- disposal facility,” and to “seek to ensure that such facility is licensed and ready to operate . no . later than 1991.” Art. 4(E)(6), 99 Stat. 1875. The Commission designated North Carolina as a host State in 1986, thereby obligating North Carolina to take “appropriate steps to ensure that an application for a license to construct and op- erate a [low-level radioactive waste storage facility] is filed with and issued by the appropriate authority.” Art. 5(C), id., at 1877. In 1988, North Carolina asked the Commission for assistance with the costs of licensing and building a facility.
