About Local Services on AreaConnect

AreaConnect aggregates publicly available data from trusted government sources to help you find service providers and essential businesses in any city across America. Our data comes from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), the US Census Bureau, and state licensing boards.

Unlike review-driven platforms, AreaConnect focuses on objective, verifiable data — things like hospital safety scores, school ratings, healthcare provider specialties, and demographic information. This gives you a factual foundation for making decisions about which providers and services to use, complementing the subjective reviews you might find elsewhere.

How Our Data Is Sourced

Every data point on AreaConnect traces back to an official government dataset. Hospital information comes from the CMS Hospital Compare database, which includes quality metrics, patient satisfaction scores, and safety grades. School data draws from the NCES Common Core of Data, which tracks enrollment, graduation rates, and student-teacher ratios for every public school in America. Demographic and economic data comes directly from the US Census Bureau's American Community Survey.

We update our data regularly as new government releases become available — typically annually for Census and education data, and quarterly for healthcare metrics. This ensures you are always working with the most current publicly available information when researching a city or service provider.
