Data

Our data and sources

Every dataset this edition publishes, with its publisher, licence, retrieval date and record count.


Why this page exists

A local publication is worth what its sourcing is worth. Listing the sources publicly is the cheapest way to make that checkable: if a figure on this site looks wrong, you can find the dataset it came from here, go to the publisher, and see for yourself.

This list is generated from the provenance record each dataset leaves when it is rebuilt from its source, so it cannot drift from what the site actually publishes. Licences are recorded exactly as the publisher states them. Where a publisher gives no licence, this page says so rather than assuming one.

The datasets

12 datasets, each rebuilt by script from its publisher’s own service.

Municipal boundary

Frames every map on the site and sets the area other datasets are checked against.

What we do not use

MiltonIQ does not use multiple listing service data, private property records, valuation feeds or any dataset that is licensed for real estate purposes. It does not scrape other news publications. It does not use datasets whose licence does not permit the use we would put them to.


If a figure looks wrong

Tell us. Every story lists the exact documents behind it with the date we retrieved them, and this page lists the recurring datasets. If a number here does not match its source, that is a correction and we will treat it as one. How corrections work.
