The Community Vitality Project is developing a number of indicators that we think measure aspects of the vitality of a community.  Full indicator descriptions are located on the indicators page of the project website.

The Community Vitality Project has a commitment to the broader scientific and policy community and strives to make the indicators used in our research available whenever possible.  To this end, we have developed a unique web-based tool called the DataExplorer, which allows for the extraction of indicators developed from a host of underlying data sources.

In the future, users will be able to connect directly to gain access to large downloads of these data.
