Measure the world
Change the world

AMERICAN INEQUALITY is a publication and database tracking key factors that influence opportunity in communities

A new way to track inequality

We publish a BIWEEKLY NEWSLETTER for change-makers to understand how inequality is widening in America. Every article uses original data visualizations to highlight neighborhoods that are struggling with a particular social challenge. We then present a path forward on these challenges to show how public, nonprofit, and private sectors can come together to create solutions to some of the greatest challenges facing society.
