Article Evaluation

 * 1) everything in the article is relevant to the topic "orthopedic surgery", the main thing that stuck out to me was that some of the hyperlinks on the page had images and definitions tagged to them. I don't think anything needs to be added, it is a thorough article that has multiple subtopics that help to explain all aspects of the general topic.
 * 2) the article is very neutral, it is filled with facts about the topic and evenly talks about each subsection.
 * 3) for the most part, each sentence on the article is cited and unbias. All of the links work and a majority of the cites are medical journals and statistical studies.
 * 4) on the talk page, people are primarily talking about updating the page so that it can be more current. We didn't talk about this topic in class, but it does follow the guidelines for what a good article should look like.

Gert Town is a small, densely populated area in the middle of New Orleans, Louisiana. In 2005,Hurricane Katrina struck the city of New Orleans, and because of Gert Town’s low elevation and its previous pre-Katrina damages, the neighborhood was vastly affected. Prior to the hurricane, Gert Town was inhabited by 4,748 people, since then, there has been a decline in the neighborhood population to about 3,614 people due to the destructive natural disaster that hit the city of New Orleans.

Between the years 2012 and 2016, approximately 54% of the neighborhood population was living in poverty. Although the area is heavily impoverished, of the 3,614 people living in the area, 41.6% of Gert Town's residents are employed. This is an increase from the 34.1% residential employment before Hurricane Katrina. The small area of Gert Town is largely occupied by a young age demographic. A majority of the employed residents are teens and young adults, working in food services, but before the 2005 hurricane, the Gert Town neighborhood was known for its contribution to the cities electrical industry. In the 1999 planning of this neighborhood, a majority of the land was to be turned into a commercial light industry so that it could not only help the city of New Orleans but also provide jobs for the area.
