Action

Why
Knowing your district’s demographics helps you understand who lives in your district, can impact the types of businesses you attract and activities/initiatives you plan, and will help you see emerging trends.
How
Track information such as commuter status, age, major, disposable income, race/ethnicity, gender, and marital status. Collaborate with the higher education institution to collect this information.
