Socioeconomic conditions and the availability of human services in Syracuse, New York, were studied using data from the 1970 census. Twenty - seven social indicators were selected as being most appropriate for indicating social conditions and potential need for services. Data were collected for each indicator by census tract, and all rankings derived for each tract were totaled and averaged producing an overall tract ranking and allowing the comparison of each tract to the city as a whole. Discrete services in each census tract were identified to determine the availability and overall need for services. The profile of the city, in terms of areas of potential need, showed clustering in the southwest and the southeast. Other clusters appeared on the near northside, in the far northeast, and in the north central area. Service delivery was found to cluster near the central city. Many city and county residents appeared to live at some distance from service delivery sites. The purpose of the report was to assemble and order information on need, service delivery patterns and population trends. It is hoped that the provider and planner can use the material as a basis for more specific investigations indicated by particular areas of interest. Extensive tabular data and maps showing geographic patterns of population clusters are included in the report and in appendices.
