• About The Project
    MetroBoston DataCommon is an online mapping tool.

    The MetroBoston DataCommon, a partnership between the Metropolitan Area Planning Council (MAPC) and the Boston Indicators Project, is an interactive data portal and mapping tool with information about the region’s people, neighborhoods, infrastructure, and environmental resources. It is a resource for all those seeking to better understand how the region and its communities are changing, and help residents, planners, city and town officials, educators, and journalists explore options and make informed decisions.

    We invite you to explore data visualizations, explore community snapshots or create your own data visualization..

495/MetroWest Regional Compact Development and Preservation Priorities
The Commonwealth has a new framework for focusing investments west of Boston. The I-495 and I-90 corridors have experienced dramatic change over the past 40 years. Rapid population and job growth has been accompanied by longer commutes, greater need for workforce housing, increasing infrastructure demands, and stressed environmental resources.
