Description: Oyster restoration projects can provide social and economic benefits to those communities whose livelihoods depend most upon the health of coastal natural resources. To identify coastal communities with high levels of natural resource job dependence, we used census data to map the percentage of the workforce employed in agriculture, forestry, and fishing per census block group. Nearshore areas (within 2km of shore) adjacent to block groups with high concentrations of workers employed in natural resource dependent sectors were scored 1 while areas adjacent to medium concentrations received a score of .5. High concentration was defined as 4-7% employed and medium concentration was defined as 1-3% employed. All remaining areas were scored 0. Scored polygons were converted to a 10m, 10m grid. Original data source: NOAAs Spatial Trends in Coastal Socioeconomics project, which was based on 2000 US Census.
