Executive Summary This report documents the findings of a data collection and analysis report conducted for New York County, New York. The report is part of an analysis generated by a student of the School of Urban and Regional Planning at Florida Atlantic University in the Fall 2014. The goal of the report is to analyze the socioeconomic condition of the chosen area. In order to reach this goal, an inventory of the demographic, social, economical and housing assets was conducted.

The information was gathered and analyzed using computerized software's, such as, the use of the U.S Census Bureau Division of Population, Economics, Housing and Historical Data. A thorough study of the statistical data will provided the current profile and rating of the area, in addition to the differential shifts and trends over time.

Geared with this knowledge a scope of New York County [Manhattan], New York future trends could be assessed and implemented. The assimilation of the county's profile serves as an origin to further research. The methodology utilized for this report is based on the tabulation of statistical secondary data into graphical depictions: Hence for visual representation. The analysis illustrates socioeconomic trends, most recent statistics, and relationships between various sectors. The research presents data showing the major and socioeconomic changes in the county's population from 1960s to present. It shows that despite the general thought of the great metropolis, on the contrary, New York County population growth projections showed a decrease in 2040. Using Current Population Surveys and 1990, 2000 and 2010 U.S Census of Population and Housing information, the study demonstrates that: (1) The New York County [Manhattan] Population trend rose rapidly in 1970. As a proportion from the past decade the population increase by 8.69%, it generated an influx of 1,459,087 new people added to the city's high population density. Some attributes of the drastic changed are aligned with the completion of the World Trade Center in 1973 as a driving force that generated an influx in economic and service labor. In addition, the elected Governor of the state Hugh Carey and the NY Department of Commerce promoted a market tourism campaign to improve the city's economy "I Love NY".

(2) The New York County [Manhattan] reveals a slow paced population growth from the years 2000 to 2010. On the year 2008 the population had an increase of 40,000 from the previous year, which continued the incremental growth trend of the previous years. However, the population influx dropped 35,000 people in the following year. Analysts contributed this decrease to the 2008 "Great Recession" that impacted most of the major control centers in the U.S. The recession had a negative effect on the socioeconomic status of the county: Hence it affected the population growth, and shift demographic status. Some of the population relocated outside the city center as a result.

(3) The household income per capita of New York County [Manhattan] had an exponential increment in the year 2010 compared to the year 2000. By 2010, the household income per capita of more than 16% of the population had an income of 200,000 or more. The incremental educational attainment of the city has proven to produced a greater amount of professional labor force. This index reinforced the general concept of the reason why the city has such economical force locally and internationally. The number of people that has a professional degree's superimposes over the population that has less than a high school diploma. As illustrated in figure 8, the number of people with less than a high school diploma contributes to the largest amount of poverty population within the county.

(4) The industrial breakdown of the county depicts a high level on finance and insurance in reference to the structural composition of the annual payroll and employee percentage per industry. Surprisingly, the construction industry ranks the lowest. The second highest corresponds to the professional, scientific and technical services. The New York County [Manhattan] is coherent with the empirical observation of the non-expert in the matter of its more affluent industry composition. Financial industry as being the driving force of the city's economic structural composition. The Occupational Structure per Industry depicts that more than 400,000 people are in the management, business, science, and arts. That constitutes more than 24 % of the entire population living in the county as of the year 2012.

(5) The Housing Condition of the New York County [Manhattan] illustrates that more people lives in homes of higher land value, the percent of the population residing in homes of

$1,000,000 or more is exponentially higher to the number of people living in homes of $100,000 - $149,000. The general over view of the high percentage of educational attainment with high amounts of the population holding professional degrees, in addition, to the exponential amount of the population being employee in the finance, insurance, professional, scientific, and technical services contributes to the overall upscale living conditions in the county. The minority groups show a slight deteriorated poverty indexes that are attribute to the educational attainment of less than high school, regardless the economic power of the city overlooks these small percentages.

Background According to Fortune 500 Magazine New York City ranks as one of the geographical zones to quarter the largest amount of multimillionaire companies . As a result New York City is considered a control center that influences the international market: Hence it holds the financial and informative structure of the globe. The magnitude in importance of this considered small zone is in fact critical for the progress of civilization. The city is located in the North East Zone of the United States territory border by the Atlantic Ocean, as shown in figure 1. The geographical coordinates for the city are established to be 40°43′42″N 73°59′39″W and its' Universal Transverse Mercator location is recognized as 18T 243900mE 4432069mN.

Dutch encountered the "perfect" location to settle and create the

most important sea port of the world. The city is bounded by the Hudson River which creates an interior bay separated from the main sea: Hence that creates a protection barrier, as shown in figure 2. The size of the Hudson River enable the explores to housed large amounts of cargo ships and provide protection to the harbor. Consequently, the market opened and the city grew rapidly. Since then, New York has been categorized as a center for financial and progressive growth. The City is considered a hub for innovation and technological advancement. In the process of shaping its urban structure New York as many other of the North American cities underwent a series of stages that produced the current structure. First as a mercantile frontier

that served as a major sea port in the profitable business of good trading. Second the Industrial Revolution of the nineteenth century that centralized all the manufacturing labor in the city. In these stage the city gained larger recognition, which in fact attracted a wider population. As a result the city hosted a massive migration that diversify the demographic profile. In the industrial era the city's high density generated a form of urban chaos that was not anticipated.

The diversification of the population created a cultural, social, economical and housing conditions that changed the American cities. The migrant communities conglomerated into tenement apartment complexes in order to be part of these great city and its industrial production. Planning groups and associations started to emerged in New York City, in reaction to the living conditions of the "other half". The Federal housing Act was enacted as a remedy measurement to recognized a set of minimum requirements for the safety and welfare of all citizens. The social composition of New York County [Manhattan] has always been categorized by an accountable differential void of lower and upper classes. In the city land use composition has both upscale residential neighborhoods as well as project complexes for low income communities. In addition, the financial center located in the southern portion of the island famously known as the "Wall nh att an

Introduction This socioeconomic analysis report presents the status of New York County in the year of 2010 and 2012. In addition, to the changes in population growth occurring over a timeframe of 60 years starting from 1960 and projecting to 2040. It shows that although substantial population growth occurred in previous years, this progress is projected to decrease in the year 2040. The eminent forecast of scientific experts in the field of geographical composition analysts showed that New York City is in site with high probability of being affected by the glacier melt down: hence the sea level rise in the city is prognosticated to increase 7 to 23 inches in the next hundred years (Department of Environmental Conservation). The social composition of the county continues to display a consistent level of White population as the primary, followed by the Black and Hispanic population.

The report examines the trends in the median household income, poverty relation to educational attainment, the current business pattern per industry composition, the occupational fields, unemployment rates, the home value distribution, housing vacancy rate, means, standard deviations and other economic and demographic indicators. The various block group statistical data are discussed based on the demographical, economical and housing conditions. A comparative perspective of several factors was conducted to illustrate the relationships between indexes. Such as the land area of the state compared to the land area of the county and population. It is evident that given the land area of the county and its population the ratio generates a high density profile. The report utilizes statistical data from the 1960, 2000, 2010, and 2012 U.S Census Bureau Division of Population, Economics, Labor and Historical. In addition, to the American Community Service Agency and the New York City Department of Housing, Unemployment, and Vacancy Agencies that provided some of the data.

year 1990 to the year of 2000 depicts the growth of more than 800,000 people in the county, as shown in figure 4.

The technological and service sector of the industry during this period of time served as the main operator for labor growth.

In a population growth researched analysis from the Statistical Center of Cornell University, the results are aligned with the previous trends in the years previous to 2010, however for the period between 2010 and 2015 a decrease of 500,000 people is forecasted. According to the data the population growth will create a curvilinear trend that will showed a slight decrease when it reaches the year 2040.

The population trends in this county are based on the

market performance standards. In addition, to the generational shift based on age. The city has become a hub for the younger professional population, while the elders reside to locations with a more favorable climatic conditions.

b. Educational Attainment The New York County [Manhattan] holds a large population of educated individuals. For the most part a high percentage of the population of 25 years and over acquired a high school diploma. The differences of Educational Attainment from the years of 1990 and 2000 depicts

the increasing trend in population and of people holding a Bachelor's Degree, as shown in figure 7. In addition, it shows the positive decrease of people 25 years and over with an education of less than 9th grade in the year 2000. The county's population reveals a contributing factor to its overall success in the professional and economical structure based on its educational attainment. As shown in figure 8, the trend of an educated community continue on the same line by sharing nearly the same amount of people 25 years and over holding a bachelor's and a graduate degree. The important index to gather is that the population is either educated, well educated, or not at all. The in between's are rarely. On the contrary of the successful educated person based on the possibility of higher income, lies the high level of poverty within the population with less than 9 grade education, as shown in figure 9. It is clearly depicted that the more educated the "better" income based, and the less educated the lower income based. In this county the progressive force of the financial center motivates its population to be more and better educated, in order, to take part in the competitive capitalism economy.

This results are in contrast with the 17% of the population making an income of $200 or more, as shown in figure 11. In the latter figure, it is imperative to acknowledge the opposing trends in the median household income between the years of 2000 and 2010. There was an economic boom of higher incomes that could be related to the educational progress and the population growth. Despite the fact that during this time period the great recession occurred most of the population was producing higher incomes. The downfall of the economic depression could appeared in the population's income in the near future, while the cycle of per capita production reaches the county.

Less than $9,999 $10,000 - $14,999 $15,000 - $24,999 $25,000 - $34,999 $35,000 - $49,999 $50,000 - $74,999 $75,000 - $99,999 $100,000 - $149,999 $150,000 - $199,999 $200,000 and above
