CDA Homebuyer Counseling Map

web app

PLACE BY YEAR

WHAT IT MEASURES

This interactive map shows people who entered homebuyer counseling (guidance on buying a home) through partner agencies of the Community Development Alliance, and the subset of those people who went on to buy a home. Locations are masked: each dot is randomly placed within a certain radius of the true location, and dots disappear when a user zooms in past a certain level. The input does not list specific places or years covered. AI

CAVEATS

  • Dot locations are randomized within a certain radius of the true location to protect identities, so they cannot be used to identify addresses or exact blocks. AI
  • Dots are hidden at closer zoom levels, so street-level or building-level analysis is not possible with this map. AI
  • The input does not state which years the data covers, so confirm the time period with the Community Development Alliance before citing. AI
  • The input lists no columns, sources, or geographic coverage details, and the boundary layer description is cut off, so confirm the full list of boundaries and how the data is compiled. AI

STORY ANGLES

  • Which parts of Milwaukee have the most people entering homebuyer counseling, and does that match where counseled people actually buy homes? AI
  • How do counseling and home purchases differ across City Aldermanic Districts or other boundaries the map lets users toggle? AI
  • What happens to people who enter counseling but have not purchased a home, and what barriers do the partner agencies say they face? AI
