Site Radius Reports: Subscribers can quickly generate reports surrounding any site loaded into PolicyMap (an investment you’ve loaded in or a pre-loaded site such as a HUD Multifamily or Public Housing Development). From the map, add the sites, click on a point and click “See Report” from the info bubble. Just choose a report and then enter the size radius for which you’d like information. It’s that easy. Federal Designations: Find out if properties or areas of interest are located in any of the following federal incentive areas:
Find these maps under the Jobs & Economy tab in the Add Data Layer menu, then type in an address, zip code, or city in the Set Location bar to see if the area qualifies.
