Interesting program. I’m curious what qualifies as a city though. Denver, CO is a lot bigger than Concord, NH. Is it possible to give some examples?

While there are numerous ways to define “cities” the one we commonly use to stage and organize our neighborhood development is the Incoprorated place as defined by the Census Bureau. However, when working with participants in the Trade-In program, we are less interested in the “city” than we are in the quality of the participant’s neighborhood coverage.
If you are looking to trade in data within this program, we will individually evaluate each participant’s coverage and determine a “trade-in” value. The value will be based on the coverage extent, the number of neighborhoods, the quality of the data and whether we currently have coverage in this area.

Great entry, and thanks for taking the time to publish it; I’m positive other readers benefited too. It really opened my eyes for some new conclusions that I hadn’t thought of before.
