| LOG #1 | 1/18/21-1/19/21 5hrs | · Data collection for the community assessment process
Objectives: 1. Research poverty rates in Lee County area. 2. Determine physical health in Lee County area. 3. Identify unemployment rate in the area. |
When researching Lee County’s statistics as a whole, I learned poverty population is up to 16.1%. One of the contributing factors of the poverty percentage is unemployment rates, which is at 4.3% and has only increased during the current pandemic.
Another contributing factor to poverty is the number of residents with no Highschool diploma: 13.1%. Many employers require a high school diploma now to be considered for the position. The number of residents with fair or poor physical health is 13.5% and some of the percentage is due to lack of knowledge on the residents behalf. |

Objectives: 1. Determine the population of Fort Myers compared to that of Cape Coral. 2. Research child obesity rates in Lee County compared to the nation. 3. Comparison of population with low food access in the county compared to the state of Florida. |
The total number for Fort Myers population equals to 81,483. When compared to increased amount of the Cape Coral population: 198,64.
When comparing the total child overweight prevalence in the United States compared to that of Lee county, the United States is at 24.2% compared to Lee County who is slightly lower at 19.1%.
The population with low food access is much higher in Lee County then compared to Florida or the United States. Lee County is at an increased 38.2%, in comparison to Florida 25.7% and the United States 22.4%.
