Basic Research on Cities
If you need basic information on cities, then try City-Data. According to the site:
We've collected and analyzed data from numerous sources to create as complete and interesting profiles of all U.S. cities as we could. We have tens of thousands of city photos not found anywhere else, hundreds of thousands of maps, satellite photos, stats about residents (race, income, ancestries, education, employment...), geographical data, state profiles, crime data, housing, businesses, birthplaces of famous people, political contributions, city government employment, weather, hospitals, schools, libraries, houses, airports, radio and TV stations, zip codes, area codes, user-submitted facts, similar cities list, comparisons to averages...
Wow. That’s a lot of info. Here’s what they have to say about Myrtle Beach. A lot of interesting stuff. Most of it would not be admissible at trial, but it can give you a start, plus it could be very useful for demand packages or mediation. Thanks goes out to Randy Hood for pointing the site out.
