Summary View help for Summary
The data collection is comprised of geocoded alcohol outlet data for Genesee County, Michigan. Licensee lists were downloaded from the State of Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs Liquor Control Commission website in 2012 and 2017. The addresses contained in the licensee lists were geocoded to create geocoded latitude and longitude variables as well as Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) projections of latitude and longitude. Additionally, based on the license type definitions, an outlet type variable was created that categorizes the outlet type as package, on-premises/bar, or both.
