About Millennial Cities
Millennial Cities started out as a pandemic hobby and the goal was pretty simple – collect as many geospatial tools as possible and put them all in one spot. Are we there yet? Not yet, but we’ve come a long way!
What We Offer
We’ve scoured the internet in search of interactive geospatial tools that can be used for community planning. Each tool – governmental, non-profit, academic, or private — is free, easy-to-use, and available for exploration.

Why You’ll Love Us
Launched in December, 2020, this site seeks to use third party tools to connect readers with a range of issues affecting the present-day urban environment. With private and governmental interactives, we intend to highlight urban issues and supply changemakers with the tools and resources needed to make independent decisions. It’s our hope that people will not only read our content, but use the tools to further their interests and form their own opinions in:
- Resilience
- Sustainability
- Equity
