Limited Supermarket Access areas from the 2023 Reinvestment Fund Limited Supermarket Access Analysis have been added to PolicyMap. The data covers three time periods – 2013, 2017 and 2022. This data is available in PolicyMap to all users. As a reminder, this does replace the former LSA and Rural LSA data that was previously in PolicyMap.
The IMLS Libraries locations have been updated with the most recent 2021 data. Please note that this update contains 2020-2021 data, thus the annual weeks open field is likely less than typical due to COVID closures. There are also some new indicators added to the info bubble, including data around library programming and ratio of Wi-Fi sessions to visits.
Home Sale Quarterly data for 2023 Q3 has been updated. This dataset shows the latest trends in the housing market, including median sale prices, the number of sales, and the % change in housing prices by zip codes.
The BLS LAU monthly data has been updated on PolicyMap to include the month of September 2023. It is available to all subscribers.
NMTC Eligibility status has now been updated on PolicyMap to reflect 2016-2020 ACS data. The NMTC status comes with other tract-level status indicators such as Severe Distress, OMB non-metropolitan status, and poverty and unemployment indicators.
We are committed to our promise of curated, cleaned, standardized, and always updated data. We’re posting real-time updates on our website and X (formerly known as Twitter).
