On July 16, Los Angeles City Controller Ron Galperin launched an updated COVID-19 dashboard that maps and tracks infections and deaths for L.A. County and all the cities and communities within it, including each neighborhood in the city of Los Angeles.
Building on his initial dashboard released in May as part of the comprehensive COVID-19 Resource Hub, Galperin’s new dashboard now includes lists of the 10 communities in the county with the highest number of cases and deaths, displays the number of total cases and deaths by ethnicity and total cases by gender and age, shows the percentage of deaths that have occurred in residential and acute care facilities, and has four county-city gradient maps displaying cases and death rates by population. Users can navigate the maps or search by address to find cases and deaths by community.
“My dashboard can help people understand where infections and deaths are occurring and how communities and the people living in them are being impacted by the pandemic,” Galperin said.
L.A. area communities with the most overall COVID-19 cases are East Los Angeles with 3,388 cases, South Gate with 2,476 cases and Boyle Heights with 2,402 cases.
Communities with the most overall COVID-19 deaths are Glendale with 120 deaths, Westlake with 112 deaths and Pico Union with 71 deaths.
Data on the dashboard is gathered from the L.A. County Department of Public Health and updated daily.
