- CDC SVI Overall National Percentile -- Social Vulnerability Index is a composite score maintained by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention using data from the U.S. Census of Population and Housing. The score is a composite of 15 measures, with all directed so that higher values indicate more vulnerability. The composite finds the percentile ranking of each component value, sums the percentile rankings, and then finds the percentile ranking of the sums. Percentile ranks are found with the formula: Percentile Rank = (Rank-1) / (N-1). If any component is missing, then the composite is also recoded as missing. Measures are organized into the four themes of Socioeconomic Status, Household Composition & Disability, Minority Status & Language, and Housing Type & Transportation, and composites for these themes are constructed with the same methodology. SVI is reported at the Census Tract level. Tracts aim to include about 4000 people each. On average, there are about 4 Census Block groups for each Census Tract, so the SVI has less geographic resolution than the ADI. Ursa stores the 2018 version of the SVI, which was released on 01/31/2020 and is the most recent as of 02/02/22. (See also [URSA-CORE] CDC SVI Overall Quintile Category)
