Frequently asked questions

What data does GISBanker use?

GISBanker uses 17 public data sources from 13 federal agencies: U.S. Census Bureau, U.S. Office of Management and Budget, U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis, U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and 7 more.

Every source, with its years, update schedule and caveats

What areas can I study?

One geography level, up to 50 areas, all in one state. A study covers a single level — state, county, place, tract, or block group — never a mix, so no one is counted twice.

What's a Market Opportunity Score?

A 0–100 score of where demand is strong and banking supply is thin, ranked against comparable areas — 100 means more opportunity than every peer on every measure.

How the score is calculated

How current is the data?

Every night GISBanker asks each publisher for its latest release and loads anything new, so new data usually appears within a day of publication.

Each source’s latest release

How is each figure calculated?

Every figure links to its formula. The Methodology page lists all 24 formulas, the exact source fields each one uses, and how missing or combined data is handled.

Methodology

Can I cite GISBanker's figures?

Yes. Every figure names its source dataset and release, and the Methodology page gives its exact formula. Written reports with ready-made citations are coming soon.
