Match Cities?

If you check the very last checkbox (“Match Cities?”), the cities chosen for comparison will be those that most closely match your target city on the selected characteristics. If the “Match Cities?” checkbox is not checked, the comparison cities will be chosen at random. This is recommended if you are using the tool mostly for curiosity.

Note that these data are highly imputed. Please contact reductionist@gmail.com for more information.

Thanks, Alan Barreca, Genie Birch, Jim McWilliams, and Ken Steif for valuable advice.

Thanks, Dad, for the idea to do this.
