Many of us are interested in the demographics of cities and learning how cities of interest are changing. Investors, families, businesses, and others want to know how some cities compare to others. This section reviews information and tools useful to assess city/place demographic, economic, and geographic structure and change. City/place refers to a geographic area of population concentration having governmental authority conveyed by the corresponding state or a Census Designated Place (CDP).

City/place demographics are included in the Proximity MetroDynamics (MD) and Situation & Outlook (S&O). In combination, MD and S&O offer the best and unique information to assess the existing situation and how geodemographic-economics are changing across the U.S.

Additional Information
Proximity develops geodemographic-economic data and analytical tools and helps organizations knit together and use diverse data in a decision-making and analytical framework. We develop custom demographic/economic estimates and projections, develop geographic and geocoded address files, and assist with impact and geospatial analyses. Wide-ranging organizations use our tools (software, data, methodologies) to analyze their own data integrated with other data. Contact Proximity (888-364-7656) with questions about data covered in this section or to discuss custom estimates, projections or analyses for your areas of interest.
