Changing the display statistics

District statistics let you view a total count or percentage of the population in your proposed districts.

Steps:
  1. On the Create ribbon, click Districts.
    Districts option on Create ribbon

    The District Statistics window appears. The District Statistics window displays the districts in your current plan, the symbology for each district, and the population count for each district and demographics per district.

    The District Statistics dialog box also displays the target mean, that can be used as a reference guide for the total population for each district in your plan.

  3. Select the demographics you want to display from the Demographics window:
    • Select Sum to display the total count for each district and demographic.
    • Select Percent to display the percent of the selected demographic in the geography.

    The demographics selected in the Demographics dialog box affect the visible columns on the District Statistics dialog box. The sum and percent are displayed in individual columns.

    As geographies are assigned to districts, the district statistics table updates automatically to reflect the new demographic population by district.
