CalEnviroScreen Scores:

This map shows the CalEnviroScreen 3.0 score for each census tract in California. The overall CalEnviroScreen score is calculated by multiplying thePollution Burden and Population Characteristics scores. Since each group has a maximum score of 10, the maximum CalEnviroScreen Score is 100.

The geographic areas are ordered from highest to lowest, based on
their overall score. A percentile for the overall score is then calculated from the ordered values. As for individual indicators, a geographic area’s overall CalEnviroScreen percentile equals the percentage of all ordered CalEnviroScreen scores that fall below the score for that area.
