Liany Arroyo, the director of the Hartford Health Department, spends a lot of her time studying neighborhoods in Hartford and finding patterns in their vaccination rates.
The downtown areas of Hartford and those that lie to the west of the city show higher vaccination rates in general. Other neighborhoods have sharply lower rates.
“The West End is a more affluent neighborhood,” Arroyo said. “There’s a dividing line there.”
