Investigating the Overlooked

Region What Who For Analysis
Reports — By Metro
8 calculations for this grain
Startups per Capita
Operating companies per 100,000 residents. Counts every company still active -- only excludes ones confirmed acquired, merged, or defunct, since most haven't had that status checked yet and treating the unknowns as inactive would undercount real companies. Matches oluwadi's own Operating Companies count exactly.

Hazard Risk
FEMA's National Risk Index score -- how exposed a county is to natural hazards (hurricane, wildfire, flooding, and 15 others), weighted by how well-resourced the community is to recover. Higher score means more risk.
View report →
Hazard Risk Per Resident
The same FEMA data, ranked by expected annual loss per resident instead of the county total -- so a small county with real exposure isn't buried under a handful of huge ones. Shown alongside Social Vulnerability and Community Resilience: what actually separates a bad storm from a catastrophe.

Health Snapshot
CDC PLACES county health data. Ranked by the share of adults reporting fair or poor health -- how people rate their own health, alongside obesity, diabetes, and frequent mental distress rates for context.

2024 Election Results
Presidential vote totals and margins, 2024 -- ranked by closest margin first. One election year on file, presented as a single snapshot, not a multi-cycle trend.

Employment & Wages
BLS Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages, summed across all ~1,029 industry codes on file -- ranked by average weekly wage, not raw employment, since raw employment mostly just tracks county size. One quarter (2025) on file, presented as a single snapshot, not yet a trend.

Airports
US airports and heliports, split by whether they actually run scheduled passenger service -- commercial versus small/private general aviation, with heliports shown separately. County and metro grains rank by commercial airports per 100,000 residents; jurisdiction ranks by raw commercial count. No drone-specific data on file -- the FAA drone registry has never been ingested.

Investor & VC Density
Investor and VC firms per 100,000 residents -- venture funds, angel groups, and firms tagged by investment stage from pre-seed through growth. Excludes only firms confirmed acquired, merged, or defunct, same as Startups per Capita. The natural counterpart to that report: where the capital sits, not just where the companies do.
