King County just released the 2014 Equity and Social Justice Annual Report, which shows the progress King County is making toward a more equitable place for us all to live...and how far we still have to go.

This reports looks at factors such as access to health care and equity in the workplace. There have been some steps in the right direction toward equity for all, but as Dow Constantine states, "Unfortunately, in King County we remain plagued by inequities. Where you live, how much you make and the color of your skin are major predictors of your life experience and your chances of living well and thriving."

Below is an infographic developed by King County as a part of the report. Read the whole report here.
