Note: —, no data; CI, confidence interval; EH, extreme heat; HVI, heat vulnerability index; Ref, reference. Categorical cut-points were determined by creating approximately equal interval categories of HVI scores in ArcMap based on the number of census tracts. Test for trend was assessed based on the categorical model’s statistic.
