Planetizen awards ZoomProspector as one of its Top 10 Websites of 2009!
Planetizen, the most popular website for the planning community, today named ZoomProspector as one of its Top 10 Websites of 2009! 2009 is the fifth year that Planetizen has made a top 10 website list. According to the awards page, “Our annual list of the 10 best planning, design, and development websites represents some of the top online resources for those interested in planning, design, and development.”
Tim Halbur, Managing Editor of Planetizen, said “The depth and functionality of ZoomProspector make it a great tool for anyone interested in uncovering the demographic and economic data of a location. We chose to recognize the site because it takes a new approach to economic development information, making it accessible to anyone.”
Planetizen also had this to say about ZoomProspector:
“Designed by planners, this tool enables users to look up data for any community based on a number of demographic criteria. Because the site gathers data from multiple sources, including those at the local level, ZoomProspector is able to boast more detailed, informative searches. Although intended for companies looking to expand to new properties, ZoomProspector is just as fun to tinker with, offering a new way to explore communities.”
