Criteria Used to Identify Changing Environmental Justice Patterns Between 2006 and 2016 Based on the Regression Coefficient

		Environmental inequity pattern in each year
		2006	2016
Environmental inequity changing patterns	Improved	Inequity identified	Not significant/Not identified
		Inequity was identified for both years ‐ the regression coefficient increased ↑ for marginalized and vulnerable groups
	Worsen	Not significant/Not identified	Inequity identified
		Inequity identified for both years—the regression coefficient decreased ↓ for marginalized and vulnerable groups
	NA	No inequity identified/Not significant in both year
