Wilmington Data

Listed below are links to various social, economic, and criminal justice data specific to Wilmington. As you can see from this information, major sections of the City:

  • Are below median and poverty income levels
  • Contain living conditions that are not conducive to a child's well being
  • Are subject to violent crimes
  • Show disturbing trends in truancy rates

It is this environment, and these factors, that the ICBBW seeks to address through it's programs, initiatives, and strategies.
