Provide long-term, sustainable opportunities for lower- and middle-income residents
Planners, economic developers, and elected officials have a responsibility to improve access to opportunities that can create jobs, reduce poverty, improve intergenerational mobility, and decrease homelessness. Communities will gain revenue, which provides more resources for services. An economic mobility strategy should help disadvantaged residents capitalize on opportunities and build their community engagement. In turn, this improves the quality of life for the entire community. ArcGIS provides the tools to make justifiable data-driven decisions in designing a sustainable economic mobility strategy for your community.
