Location analysis

Property Location Report

The Property Location Report turns one US address or coordinate into a dated, sourced report about where a property sits: the state, county, census tract and school districts; population, income, rent and home-value estimates for the area; the nearest public schools and places; crime reported to the local police agencies; the house price trend and the homes currently on the market nearby; the FEMA National Risk Index, flood zone, wetlands, wildfire exposure and disaster history; and regulated sites, Superfund sites and underground tank records close by.

The Property Location Report runs live in the MapGO workspace, on an interactive map.

Paid plans include reports every month; past that a report costs credits, or buy one on its own.

Every figure names the dataset and release it came from, so a buyer, agent or lender can check it. The report is a snapshot: the page and the PDF keep showing what the data said on the day it was made.

How it works

Choose a point by searching an address, typing coordinates, using your location or clicking the map. MapGO checks that the point is inside the United States, shows which county the report will cover and what it costs, then gathers every section in parallel from federal and state datasets held in its own database — the Census Bureau, FEMA, the EPA, the USFWS, the USDA, the FHFA, the FBI and Realtor.com among them — and stores the result as one report.

The report covers the 50 states and the District of Columbia. A point outside the United States is refused before anything runs, and a section whose dataset does not reach the point says so rather than showing a zero.

How to use the Property Location Report

  1. Step 1

    Pick a US location

    Search an address, type latitude and longitude, use your current location or click the map. Points outside the United States are rejected.

  2. Step 2

    Check the coverage and cost

    The panel names the county the report will cover and whether it is included in your plan, costs credits or is a one-off purchase.

  3. Step 3

    Create the report

    Give it a name if you like and create it. The report opens on the web and can be downloaded as a PDF; a guest purchase is emailed.

What people use it for

Before making an offer

See the flood zone, wildfire exposure, disaster history and regulated sites around a home before you commit, with the source of each figure named.

Listing preparation

Agents attach a sourced summary of schools, amenities, area statistics and the local market to a listing instead of assembling it by hand.

Lending and insurance checks

Get the FEMA flood zone, base flood elevation and hazard index for a point as a starting point for a formal determination.

Relocation research

Compare a few candidate addresses on crime, schools, prices and hazards with the same report for each.

Frequently asked questions

Which areas does the report cover?
The 50 US states and the District of Columbia. Addresses and coordinates outside the United States are refused, and Puerto Rico and the other territories are not covered yet.
Is this a flood insurance or wetland determination?
No. The flood and wetland sections show FEMA and USFWS map data for the point. A formal determination comes from a lender, an insurer or a delineation on the ground; the report tells you where to look.
What does it cost?
Paid plans include a monthly number of reports. Past that a report costs credits, or anyone can buy a single report for a one-off price and receive it by email without an account.
Where does the data come from?
Federal and state releases loaded into MapGO’s own database: Census TIGER and ACS, NCES schools, FEMA’s National Risk Index, flood layer and disaster declarations, USFWS wetlands, USDA wildfire risk, EPA ECHO, Superfund and UST Finder, FHFA house price indexes, FBI crime statistics and Realtor.com market metrics. Each section names its release.
Can I get it as a PDF?
Yes. Every report can be downloaded as a PDF from its page; the PDF is rendered from the stored report, so it always matches the web view.
