The introduction lays out the new format of the Community Report Card (CRC) and explores the concept of sustainability, which is the theme of the report. You can find it online here. (PDF)
When we were planning the CRC, we tried to build on the tradition of other community indicator reports. The report attempts to become a tool that can explore how to measure all aspects of our community. Community indicator reports understand and highlight that even though some things (like happiness and civic engagement) are not traditionally measured, they still impact our quality of life. Community indicators reports in general, and the CRC specifically, recognize that there is much interconectedness among different spheres of life.
For some examples of other indicator reports and an idea about what is to come in the CRC, see the links below.
