Information

This map was created with publicly available data and uses the Leaflet JavaScript library to render the data. I will make updates to the function of the map as I am using it to learn more about Leaflet.

The goal of the map is to show COVID-19 positive rates in Alameda County. Clicking on a Zip Code will show a simple pop up with the Zip Code and Percent Positive Rate.

The map also overlays the percent minority in each census tract. I have defined percent minority as anyone non white in the US Census Population by Race and Hispanic Origin table (B03002).
