Data Gem: How to Utilize Census Business Builder (CBB) to Analyze the Economic Effects of Disasters
Description
Census Business Builder, a leading source of free and reliable business data, has a new feature that allows you to gather business, demographic, housing, and socioeconomic statistics for one or more areas comprising a FEMA Declared Disaster Area. This feature notably allows you to quickly analyze the economic impact to specific sectors, industries, products, and major imports.
In this short Data Gem video, you’ll learn how to find and select the disaster area of interest to view highly valuable statistics, how to generate and use an interactive custom report, and how to select a variable (such as poverty rates) to compare the disaster area to the nation and state.
