Compare Two Cities

Evaluate the profiles of two cities, looking at demographics, finances, economics, and other quality-of-life factors important to you.

The city comparison report data is drawn from an array of sources, and is updated at least once a year:

• U.S. Census Bureau estimates and projections, including latest monthly estimates for population at the city level.


• Bureau of Labor employment data by industry and occupation.


• Internal Revenue Service statistics on tax filers and year-to-year migration.


• Federal Bureau of Investigation and local police departments and municipalities for crime information.


• National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration for weather information.
