The City of Chandler, located in the southeastern Phoenix Metropolitan Area, is a thriving community of innovation seeking to plan a sustainable future for its residents, businesses, and visitors. As the City is dedicated to utilizing data to improve municipal operations and planning, the Neighborhood Resources Department is exploring opportunities to further leverage the Building Blocks data platform. To advance these efforts, graduate Public Affairs students studying applied econometrics collaborated with the City of Chandler through the ASU Project Cities program to examine research questions focused on challenges related to housing as well as quantify the impacts of the For Our City program over time. The findings and policy implications will be shared with leadership and staff to inform future decisions as well as best practices and opportunities for leveraging the Building Blocks platform.
