I had to add fields of Percent Hispanic and Density Hispanic based on county population, in which I calculated.I am working with both blocks and roads shapefiles. When I run the Autocorrelation tool, I get a high Z-score (239-577) and at least two messages about threshold values and neighbors ..... ; I have tried other Conceptualization relationships yet the tool would not work at all. I just want to make sure I am setting my parameters correctly. Also, was still not sure if I needed to perform any type of joins....&nbsp; Please help.</P><P><IMG class="image-1 jive-image" src="https://community.esri.com/legacyfs/online/333629_pastedImage_1.png" style="width: 620px; height: 465px;" /></P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 03 Mar 2017 19:03:57 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/spatial-statistics-questions/high-z-score-when-running-moran-s-i/m-p/477261#M1500 SommerYunes 2017-03-03T19:03:57Z Re: High Z Score when running Moran's I https://community.esri.com/t5/spatial-statistics-questions/high-z-score-when-running-moran-s-i/m-p/477262#M1501 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>From<A href="http://desktop.arcgis.com/en/arcmap/latest/tools/spatial-statistics-toolbox/spatial-autocorrelation.htm"> here</A></P><BLOCKQUOTE class="jive_macro_quote jive-quote jive_text_macro"><P></P>For polygon features, you will almost always want to choose <SPAN>ROW</SPAN> for the <SPAN>Standardization</SPAN> parameter...</BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML> Fri, 03 Mar 2017 22:33:41 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/spatial-statistics-questions/high-z-score-when-running-moran-s-i/m-p/477262#M1501 DanPatterson_Retired 2017-03-03T22:33:41Z
