Data Mapping Project
The interactive features of the Highland Park Housing Information map provide a valuable resource for planners, policy makers, nonprofits, and the community members. Unlike the ZIMAS website, the Highland Park Housing Information map allows users to view pertinent housing information for various prosperities by clicking on data points rather than conducting individual search requests. Additionally, the Highland Park Housing Information map permits users to filter the displayed data points by the Last Sale Amount. The filtering feature allows users see where the properties are being sold at higher prices. Lastly, the map and database allow planners and activists to track strong gentrification indicators like Ellis Act status and Rent Stabilization status in Highland Park on a year-to-year basis.
