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..
For Technical Assistance
For questions about how to use MetroBoston DataCommon or a particular data set, a MAPC staff person is available by phone during regular business hours (9 a.m. to 5 p.m.) for technical assistance.
