Community Investment Explorer

St. Louis Fed

The CIE includes more than 3 million transactions totaling over $2.2 trillion in community and economic development capital from nine federal programs over a five-year period, primarily 2018-22. Data are based on the location of the project or the recipient of the funds (e.g., the affordable housing development, small business owner or consumer), not the capital provider. The tool has a variety of measures by which to compare metro areas and the rural portions of states. CIE also allows users to examine the distribution of capital and trends in low- and moderate-income neighborhoods.
