About NDSC

Neighborhood Data for Social Change (NDSC) is a project within the USC Lusk Center for Real Estate focused on using data to help local civic actors track measurable change, improve local policies and programs, and ultimately advocate for a better quality of life within their communities. The project includes a free, publicly available online resource as well as data support services and thought partnership.

View data on the NDSC map across ten different policy areas in LA County neighborhoods, cities and census tracts.

NDSC provides thought partnership and data support services to local community partners, allowing them to use the resources available on NDSC to plan and implement programs, fundraise and communicate the impact of their work.
