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.
