Hispanic, while several of the developments' populations are mostly White. In San Clemente, there are three LIHTC developments that are predominantly -Hispanic but are located in White tracts. In San Juan Capistrano, all three LIHTC developments (each restricted to seniors), have predominantly -White populations in Hispanic tracts. In Santa Ana, every development is located in a Hispanic tract, but there are four predominantly -Asian American or Pacific Islander developments and one predominantly -White development. In Tustin, the only Project -Based Section 8 development is predominantly -Asian American or Pacific Islander in a White tract, and every LIHTC development is predominantly -Asian American or Pacific Islander, but located in a White or Hispanic tract. In Westminster, every tract is predominantly -Asian American or Pacific Islander, but the Royales Apartments are predominantly Hispanic. C. Disparities in Access to Opportunity Describe any disparities in access to opportunity for residents of publicly supported housing in the jurisdiction and region, including within different program categories (public housing, project -based Section 8, Other Multifamily Assisted Developments, HCV, and LIHTC) and between types (housing primarily serving families with children, elderly persons, and persons with disabilities) ofpublicly supported housing. Disparities in access to opportunity, when compared to publicly supported housing, cut in conflicting directions. School proficiency, for instance, is very good in the Urban County, along the coast, in the southern part of the County, and on the northeast edge; this cuts out most of the more urban areas, where publicly supported housing is concentrated. Job proximity is far more variable, although with a general tendency to be located along the main thoroughfares — the same as publicly supported housing. The entire County has good low transportation cost index scores, with slightly better scores in the northern part of the County where most of the publicly supported housing is clustered. Environmental health is very poor overall, but better to the south, where there is far less publicly supported housing. Contributing Factors of Publicly Supported Housing Location and Occupancy Consider the listed factors and any other factors affecting the jurisdiction and region. Identify factors that significantly create, contribute to, perpetuate, or increase the severity of fair housing issues related to publicly supported housing, including Segregation, RIECAPs, Disparities in Access to Opportunity, and Disproportionate Housing Needs. For each contributing factor that is significant, note which fair housing issue(s) the selected contributing factor relates to. Please see the Appendix for the following Contributing Factors to Publicly Supported Housing Location and Occupancy: • Admissions and occupancy policies and procedures, including preferences in publicly supported housing • Community opposition • Displacement of residents due to economic pressures 240 75A-519
