GSRP Sites and Median Federal Poverty Level

This map shows the location of GSRP sites relative to Michigan's census tracts and their median federal poverty levels (FPL) in 2022-2023. GSRP sites are differentiated by whether the sites are based in schools or in community-based organizations (CBOs). A large majority of GSRP children (90%) came from low-income families (i.e., families whose income is less than or equal to 250% of the FPL), aligning with the state's enrollment priority of low-income families. Census tracts are mapped according to the average FPL level of four-year-olds within that area.*

  • Additional information about a census tract, including its geographic type, estimated number of four-year-olds, and its Child Opportunity Level, are available by hovering over a tract. The Child Opportunity Index was created by diversitydatakids.org and Brandeis University to reflect opportunities available to children based on their neighorhood's educationa, socioeconomic, and health/environmental resources.
