Neighborhoods with little diversity result in segregated community assets – such as schools, public service facilities and programming, parks and recreation areas, and jobs. Residential segregation is a barrier to accessing health, workforce and job opportunities, and educational programming – including high-quality ECE services.  The maps below represent what we call and Access Index - a visual representation of each areas to child care that is conveniently located near either the home or along the route to work. On the Missouri side, areas with fewer children and more providers ranked higher on the Access index, such as north Clay County and East Jackson County. On the Kansas side, areas closest to the city core ranked higher in access compared to communities further away, though these communities are underserved overall. To properly assess Kansas City residents' access to child care, we looked at several programs and age groups to gather the full picture of the ECE landscape in each community.  As a general rule, the areas colored in darker red have the least amount of access to the programs we included.
