Racial Homeownership Gap data to PolicyMap. Data is available at the block group, census tract, ZCTA, county sub, county, and state geographies.

Users can look at the gaps for the following ethnicities/races: Hispanic or Latino, Black or African American, American Indian or Alaska Native, Asian, Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander, some other race, and two or more races. This data is updated annually and is available to premium subscribers.
