Chosen Ecosystems

We hand collected on:

  • Washington, DC
  • Burlington, VT
  • Austin, TX
  • Denver, CO
  • The Twin Cities, MN

We also have material on some other cities in E:\mcnair\projects\ecosystem. These include some Emerging Ecosystems, which had blog articles written about them by McNair Staff. We also have complete information on Houston, which was the subject of a number of Baker Institute policy reports:

Choosing Ecosystems

VC Rankings

We want cities that have some venture capital investment. Ranking US Cities by Venture Capital provides data on those cities. Data on actively-VC-backed startups for some of our cities are available in E:\projects\vcdb3 in files named Alive2018CityOrState.txt

TIF data

It might also be useful to do cities where we have other useful data. One thing we might use is cities listed in the TIF Project, especially:

  • Chicago,IL
  • Columbus, OH
  • Washington, DC
  • Houston, TX
  • Dallas, TX
  • Vermont -- and so Burlington, VT
  • Dublin, OH
  • Allegheny County, PA -- and so Pittsburg, PA

Other possibilities include:

  • St. Louis (TIF data without GIS info)
  • Atlanta (appears to have TIF data with GIS info)
  • Cincinnati (has TIFs but no data)
