NeighborhoodScout is a website and online database of U.S. neighborhood analytics created in 2002. The site offers neighborhood reports and a search function. The website is owned and operated by Location, Inc., a Rhode Island corporation headquartered in Worcester, Massachusetts. Andrew Schiller conceived NeighborhoodScout while working on his doctorate in geography at Clark University in Worcester, MA. In an interview with Inman News, Schiller discusses that he used to move around often for jobs or for school, and was often in a position to make expensive decisions about the best places in which to buy or rent. “But asking friends or real estate professionals always led to answers that were an inaccurate mix of what my friend or agent thought I wanted, combined with what they themselves want in a neighborhood. As a result, the suggestions were never right.” Schiller founded Location, Inc. in 2000 and launched Neighborhoodscout.com in 2002. More information...
