Does anyone know of data tools that could help (say) a city council understand the position of their own municipality? I think a lot of people are flying blind

Does anyone know of data tools that could help (say) a city council understand the position of their own municipality? I think a lot of people are flying blind, not asking the right questions.
- NumberWangMan 6y agoHey, they have some info on this: https://www.strongtowns.org/journal/2018/10/19/value-per-acre-analysis-a-how-to-for-beginners https://www.strongtowns.org/journal/2018/10/19/value-per-acr... Usually the tax values of properties are available to the public, as well as digital maps of plots. You can combine the two to do a coarse analysis of how much each property is worth per acre. Urban 3, the firm that did the analysis in the article, goes much further and includes things like where people take trips and which roads are the most valuable, that sort of thing. But even a basic analysis can be quite telling.
