This report is designed to correspond with DataHaven’s Town Equity Reports. The DataHaven Town Equity Reports, available for each of the 169 towns in Connecticut, disaggregate data from the 2020 Census, American Community Survey microdata files, DataHaven Community Wellbeing Survey record-level files, and federal and state agencies to create relevant town-level information that is not available from any other source. These innovative and user-friendly reports are widely used to inform local- and state-level efforts to improve community well-being and racial equity throughout Connecticut. Reports for regions such as counties are based on DataHaven’s analysis of data for each of the towns that comprise each region, or on parallel county-level statistics, depending on the data source used.
The 2023 editions of the regional (including county, COG and DMHAS region) and town reports represent version 2.0. Please see our Community Index reports and our statewide health equity report for a more thorough narrative discussion of the issues covered in these reports.

2023 document notes, clarifications, and errata
- In the 2023 report’s Education and Youth chapter, suspension rates are described as suspensions per 1,000 students. To clarify, this indicator is actually based on the number of students suspended at least once per 1,000 students. If a student has more than one suspension in a year, they only count towards this rate once.
