This feature shows historic plats/neighborhoods that included race-based covenants that stated who could or could not live on that specific plats. In the case of Jefferson County, this took the form of excluding based on race or expressly only permitting those of 'Caucasian' race to own, use, or occupy buildings or property. These race-based covenants were written in the 1910's through 1950 when they were made illegal by the Supreme Court. |

Additional information about this dataset, how it was created, and details about the race-based land covenants can be found here: https://libguides.mines.edu/jeffco/jeffco</span></p><p><span>The dataset was created in the summer of 2020 and provided to Jefferson County Public Health for use in various analysis at this time. </span></p></div></div> |
