The Data Behind
Every City Worldwide
UrbFact turns raw government data into clear, comparable city profiles — so you can make informed decisions about where to live, work, or invest.
Making City Data Accessible to Everyone
Government data is powerful — but it's scattered across dozens of federal websites, buried in spreadsheets, and formatted for researchers, not regular people.
UrbFact changes that. We pull data from the US Census Bureau, FBI, NOAA, BLS, and other official sources, then organize it into clean, readable city profiles that anyone can understand.
Whether you're moving to a new city, researching neighborhoods, comparing school districts, or just curious about the place you call home — UrbFact gives you the facts, fast.
Built on Official Government Data
Every number on UrbFact traces back to a verified federal or state data source. No estimates, no guesswork — just facts.

How We Score Cities
Every city gets a composite score from 1 to 10 and letter grades (A+ through F) in six categories. The scores aren't opinions — they're calculated from real data points relative to national medians and percentiles.
