Neighborhood Knowledge California (NKCA)

NKCA serves as statewide, interactive website that assembles and maps a variety of databases that can be used in neighborhood research. Its aim is to promote greater equity in housing and banking policy by providing a set of web-based tools for documenting and analyzing trends. In addition, it functions as a geographic repository for users to map their own communities by uploading their own datasets.

NKCA is a project of the Advanced Policy Institute (API) at the University of California, Los Angeles. The Urban Strategies Council through InfoOakland is the Northern California Partner for NKCA and is conducting launch events, training and other promotional activities for NKCA in the Bay Area.
