A short orientation: population, housing, education, commute, income -- side by side with Massachusetts as a comparator -- drawn from the city's "Somerville at a Glance" publication. Source for the underlying numbers is US Census + ACS via the city's open data portal. This page is part of an independent resident project, not affiliated with the City of Somerville; the numbers are the city's, the framing is ours.
The current values for the headline metrics. Years vary by metric (ACS releases on rolling cadences).
Every metric in the dataset, grouped by topic. Side-by-side Somerville and Massachusetts values where both are published. Sourced from data.somervillema.gov/dataset/Somerville-at-a-Glance/jnde-mi6j.
