The project examines the multifaceted effects of proximity to major highways on social and economic factors across different counties. By classifying counties based on their closeness to highways, the analysis explores various outcomes such as food access, income disparities, environmental health, housing values, and poverty. A focused analysis seeks to link infrastructure placement to inequality, considering historical contexts and planning decisions. While not establishing causality, the...
