These data include four historical datasets that were transcribed from the Community Profiles of Pittsburgh reports, which were published in 1974. The Community Profiles were prepared for 71 Pittsburgh neighborhoods by the City of Pittsburgh's Department of City Planning and include demographic information, housing, socio-economic conditions, and community facilities. The four datasets included here are data on building permits issued in 1972, arrests for major crimes in 1972, public assistance given in 1972, and community facilities serving and located in Pittsburgh neighborhoods.

Miscellaneous Reports from the 2014 American Community Survey Report

This compilation includes 8 historical datasets, part of the collection of the Pittsburgh University Library System. Prepared by the Health and Welfare Planning Association, and funded by the Richard King Melon Foundation, the profiles were intended to inform the people, organizations and businesses of Allegheny County about the characteristics of the communities in which they lived, worked and played so they could make better decisions.

This data was prepared by Rosalie Garfinkle as a course project for LIS 2970 Open Government Data in the Master of Library Program at the University of Pittsburgh. These six historical datasets are transcribed from the annual reports done by the Division of Tenement House Inspection for the Bureau/Department of Public Health of the City of Pittsburgh. The goal of this Division was to canvas working-class housing and improve the living conditions of these tenement houses. Reports were published each year from 1907 to 1913 (with 1907 only showing data for ten months of the year, March-December). In 1914, the Division of Tenement House Inspection and the Division of Sanitary Inspection were combined and began to work together. For a more in-depth history of the Bureau/Department of Public Health and the reports from the Division of Tenement House Inspection, see the readme file included here. The six datasets included here are data on the violations corrected in tenements houses from 1907-1913; a summary of inspections conducted from 1907-1913; a record of tenement houses in the city in 1912, the number of apartments in houses in 1912; height of tenement houses by story for the front and rear of the building in 1912. For all 1912 datasets, please refer to this map linked below for context regarding the wards listed in the data. This data was published by the Department of Public Health and obtained through the University of Pittsburgh’s Archives & Special Collections. A guide to data from the City's health department can be found here: https://digital.library.pitt.edu/islandora/object/pitt:US-PPiU-ais197428/from_search/3debdacfbde1f422c76e36d68ea54a7f-3
