intelligent advantage.

Our proprietary benchmarking, market research, and place-based analytics are the fuel for data-driven investment and planning strategies. From competitive benchmarking to economic forecasting, we equip clients with an intelligence layer few firms can provide.

It’s anchored by Place Power™: our proprietary approach to benchmarking 1000+ cities globally across 40+ measures of Livability, Lovability, and Prosperity. This is the engine behind Best Cities, our world-renowned city-ranking platform, cited by Bloomberg as the most comprehensive city ranking on the planet.
