Ever wondered how your city compares? So did we.

LOC Research Hub

One of the questions every city asks itself at one point or another is: how do we compare? While each city is unique, there is a lot to be learned by looking at trends across regions and the state. Along with satisfying that curiosity, these trends can help determine how and in what ways to invest resources.

The LOC’s ongoing research helps tell the story of Oregon’s cities and the challenges they are facing. LOC researchers conduct surveys of member cities, analyze the data and compile reports that provide cities with crucial information.
