1. Select a community or urban area that you’re familiar with and describe to the best of your ability the following information: location on a map, economic conditions, demographic description of residents (age, gender, most common jobs, etc.), degree of health access, crime rate, and education.

Crime Statistics

Start with the local police department who will either have the information or know where to get it.

Education

You are looking for statistics on the percentage of adults who completed high school and university. An area with many university graduates will tend to be more wealthy and have less crime. An economic development office often has this information.

2. List the needs you see in your community. This can include better support for low-income families, assistance for lonely or elderly people, and better clean up of public areas, etc.

All communities need these types of services, but some more than others. Focus on the biggest needs.
