Mapping Black Renters in the Greater Toronto Area: Addressing Urban Inequities through Gamification

The goal of this project is to shed light on housing disparities faced by black renters in the GTA and explore the intersectionality of race with various socio-economic variables. The project aims to provide researchers, academics, policymakers, journalists, and students with a central repository of data that explores the intersectionality of race, class, income, employment, education, immigrant or citizen status, and various urban indicators such as access to transit, public/green space, amenities, schools, daycares, health facilities, community centers, crime rates, and housing characteristics such as landlord type and housing type.
