DrillDown profiles, drawing on business disciplines and community strengths, have a strong track record of stimulating sustain- able, private investment, benefiting communities and businesses alike. The Miami DrillDown is no exception. Focusing on core market drivers that resonate across industry lines, the DrillDown found substantial cause for optimism and investment in the City of Miami. Additionally, the partnerships established over the course of the DrillDown give these findings solid grounding and point toward the positive outcomes that can be achieved through innovative approaches to building com- munity strength. I look forward to seeing these DrillDown findings leveraged for additional private investment and continued successes in the City's vibrant neighborhoods.

The analysis of five low to moderate income neighborhoods in Miami revealed the most significant unrecognized potential of any DrillDown studies to date. These unprecedented, but not unexpected, results triggered Mayor Diaz's decision to chal- lenge census estimates in 2007. The findings demonstrate the vitality of Miami inner-city communities and are all the more critical because developers, retailers, and financial services use demographic data to support their investment decisions. Mayor Diaz, his team, and local CDCs are committed to ensuring the investment that takes place will respond to the needs of the existing community and not used to displace people. The goal is that the data be used to better leverage public and private investment in underserved neighborhoods across the city. Social Compact looks forward to working with the City and the other stakeholder organizations who contributed to the suc- cess of the Miami DrillDown to facilitate a paradigm shift with regard to how information can better serve communities. Miami is a demonstration in information -led development. It is the hope that the findings provided herein serve as another source of information for the City of Miami, and other business and community leaders, in their decisions to implement sustain- able economic development projects in inner-city neighborhoods.

Thompson City Clerk ami DrillDown Backg round Social Compact Catalyzing Business Investment in Inner City Neighborhoods In recent years, inner-city neighborhoods have come to represent billions of dollars in untapped buying power and retail leakage. The ethnic and cultural diversity of urban residents represent myriad opportunities for local entrepreneurs, niche markets and new markets for financial services, corporate retailers and other commercial investors. Despite this opportunity barriers to private investment in underserved neighborhoods persist. As a result, urban residents lack access to basic goods and services at competitive prices, and retailers and developers are unable to capitalize on the fundamental assets of inner- city, urban communities. Underserved urban neighborhoods are often negatively stereotyped and defined by deficiencies rather than strengths. The reason for this is manifold. First, deficiency -based depictions are necessitated by funding and policy regulations that require a neighborhood to demonstrate need for federal subsidies and social service programs. While these depictions attest to social need, they do little to highlight neighborhood strengths and economic opportunity. Second, excessive media coverage of undesirable characteristics such as crime, poverty, and blight perpetuate negative perceptions of these inner-city neighborhoods. Finally, lack of dependable business -oriented data on underserved communities expands the information gap on market trends, disabling potential investors from making informed decisions. Combined, these factors contribute to a cycle of missed opportunities in underserved urban markets. THE DRILLDOWN: BRIDGING THE INFORMATION GAP Beginning with the premise that a significant reason for inner-city disinvestment is lack of good market information, Social Compact developed the Neighborhood Market DrillDown to address key barriers to private investment in and around inner- city neighborhoods, Social Compact offers its neighborhood market analyses to local governments, community organizations and businesses looking to attract investment or to invest in inner cities. These analyses provide alternative assessments of population, income and housing that do not rely on outdated and potentially inaccurate decennial census data. The DrillDown was established to provide up-to-date profiles of market strength, stability and opportunity for small, dense, and rapidly changing urban geographies. The DrillDown builds on current, finely sieved market information drawn from a wide spectrum of commercial, proprietary and local government sources (e.g. tax assessor, building permit, commercial credit companies and realtors). Rather than relying on any one information set, the DrillDown findings surface from a combined body of data. These findings, tested against supplemental data and the intuitive knowledge of local market leaders, serve as the foundation for an objective, systematic analysis of business attributes. Based on this data, Social Compact has developed the following indicators of market size, strength and stability.

Thompson City Clerk ami DrillDown Social Compact Catalyzing Business Investment in Inner City Neighborhoods DrillDown Overview With support from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, Social Compact applied its DrillDown analysis to five neighbor- hoods in the City of Miami. The Miami DrillDown focused on identi- fying those areas that are significantly underserved with regard to retail (with an emphasis on grocery stores) and financial services. The City's commitment to poverty reduction and the Knight Founda- tion's mission to build strong communities so cities can "reach their highest potential" guarantee an exceptional partnership for Social Compact and the economic development field. Social Compact would like to thank the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, Washington Mutual and Citibank for their financial support and participation in the DrillDown analysis. We would also like to recognize the collaboration and support of Mayor Diaz, Commissioner Michelle Spence Jones, the City of Miami, Miami Dade Community College, Florida International University, Tom Zuniga, and local stake holders. In addition we extend a special thanks to the entire Social Compact Board of Directors for their continued leadership and support. Included in this report are DrillDown findings for the following study area neighborhoods. 1. Allapatah 2. Little Haiti 3. Liberty City 4. Overtown 5.

Social Compact Cato yzing Business Investment in Inner City Neighborhoods Submitted into the public record in connection with item # a. on 10'44-11. Priscilla A. Thompson City Clerk • Study area neighborhoods are higher density markets than previously thought. DrillDown estimates revealed higher population densities in each of the five study area neighborhoods. For example, the DrillDown estimates 29 persons per acre in Overtown and 22 pesons per acre in Little Haiti, compared to the 16 per acre reported by Census 2000, for both of these neighborhoods. • DrillDown population estimates far exceeded Census 2000 counts in all of the study area neighborhoods. Neighborhoods where the DrillDown population estimate ex- ceeded a 50% increase from Census 2000 estimates were Overtown (93%), Wynwood/Edgewater (84%) and Liberty City (54%). DrillDown estimates exceeded Census 2000 by 39% in Little Haiti and by 1 9% in Allapattah. Higher incomes signal greater buying power in study area neighborhoods... • Each of the study area neighborhoods boast aggregate neighborhood incomes far above Census 2000 estimates. Most notably, the aggregate neighborhood income in Wynwood/Edgewater was 119% above Census 2000 figures, and in Overtown, the DrillDown's aggregate income was 92% higher than the census. • Income density/income per acre is highest in Allapattah, Liberty City and Little Haiti, each at over $200,000 per acre. • Two study area neighborhoods saw an increase of 50% or more from Census 2000 average household income figures; Wynwood/Edgewoter saw a 61% increase and Little Haiti's average income is estimated at 50% higher than reported by Census 2000. • DrillDown estimates for median household income also exceeded Census 2000 estimates by 25% or more in all study area neighborhoods; most notably Wynwood/ Edgewater, at a 59% increase from Census 2000 numbers and Little Haiti, with a 46()/0 increase. • The DrillDown estimates the informal economy to be worth more than $184 million in study area neighborhoods alone, comprising over 11% of the total study area econ- omy. The informal economy estimate is largest in Wynwood/Edgewater, comprising 1 2% of the total neighborhood economy.. Upward trends in homeownership indicate greater market stability... • Owner occupancy by building was highest in Little Haiti and Liberty City, with 47% and 44%, respectively. By measuring homeownership at the building level, the DrillDown reveals a greater presence of homeowners in study are neighborhoods. In addition, the DrillDown's estimates for owner occupancy by unit exceeded Census 2000 counts in all five study area neighborhoods. • The value of single family homes increased substantially from Census 2000 values in all study area neighborhoods. The DrillDown estimates the median home sale value at over 300% above the Census 2000 reported value in Wynwood/Edgewater, from $57,000 to $245,000. The DrillDown's estimate is nearly 200% greater than the Census value for Little Haiti. In addition, median home sale values increased by 1 84% in Overtown, 180% in Allapattah, and 146% in Liberty City. * Census trend projections are modeled market projections derived from census findings that are annually revised based upon historic measures of macro -market performance. Copyright 0 The Social Compact, Inc. 2007 6 Social Compact Catalyzing Business Investment in Inner City Neighborhoods Study area neighborhoods demonstrate safer streets, showing significant drops in crime... • All study area neighborhoods experienced notable drops in reported incidents of violent crime between 2002 and 2005; three neighborhoods saw a decline of 30% or more —Little Haiti, Allapattah, and Wynwood/Edgewater. Additionally, violent crime dropped by 25% in Liberty City and by 1 5% in Overtown. 1 • Property crime is also down in all study area neighborhoods. In Allapattah and Little Haiti, property crime dropped by 39% arid 38%, respedively. Other study area neighborhoods saw significant declines: Overtown's property crime dropped 34%, Liberty City's dropped 31% and Wynwood/Edgewater dropped by 29%. The DrillDown demonstrates market opportunity in study area neighborhoods... • The DrillDown estimates that a significant proportion of residents are underbanked in study area neighborhoods. For example, nearly half of Overtown residents do not presently have a traditional banking relationship. In each of the study area neighborhoods, the number of individuals lacking credit histories is over 30%. These findings are supported by survey results from four of the five study area neighborhoods in which over 70°/0 of surveyed individuals in each neighborhood demonstrated a perceived need for banking services in their communities (see page 17). • The DrillDown documented the greatest number of nontraditional financial institutions (pawnshops, payday lenders and check cashers) in Wynwood/Edgewater, where there were 31 nontraditional financial institutions per 10,000 households. Wynwood/Edgewater is also where 87% of surveyed individuals reported making bill payments in cash. Residents in Liberty City and Overtown were also likely to make bill payments in cash, according to survey responses. • Little Haiti, Overtown, and Wynwood/Edgewater had the least number of full service grocers per 10,000 households, in addition, residents in these three neighborhoods travel farther than study area residents to reach a full service grocer. Currently, no full service grocers can be found in Overtown. DrillDown findings are supported by survey results where residents in Overtown and Liberty City cited grocery stores as among those services most needed. Each of the five Miami DrillDown neighborhood markets are dynamic, diverse communities that have experienced significant populaion growth beyond what is documented by Census 2000. Furthermore, the DrillDown estimates roughly 48,000 individuals, more than 7,000 households, are missed by census trend projections. These findings dem- onstrate the extent of the undercount in these neighborhoods. Confronting common misperceptions, all study area neighborhoods exhibit significant drops in reported inci- dents of crime. Meanwhile, increasing home sale values and hot spots of new residential construction indicate the five neighborhoods as stable communities where home- ownership is on the rise. The DrillDown analysis is reinforced by responses from a recent survey, signaling these neighborhoods are prime markets for investment.

Copyright The 5ocial Compact, Inc. 2007 7 Miami DrillDown Social Compact Catalyzing Business Investment in Inner City Neighborhoods MARKET SIZE figures indicate a neighborhood's population of residential consumers, effec,ively describing neighborhood mass and density. Market size is commonly underestimated in inner-city neighborhoods because measurements at the neighborhood level are often outdated or inaccurate. Research has shown that the decennial census is susceptible to under- counting particular areas due to incorrect information; unreturned and incomplete surveys; and missed households and individuals. Population undercounts are more likely to occur in low-income, predominantly minority, urban neighborhoods, where a larger proportion of residents may have language barriers, live in overcrowded housing, and have greater mis- trust of government. Accurate measurements of market size underpin assessments of investment and business potential in neighborhoods. To enhance accuracy, Social Compact's Drill - Down uses data sources compiled on an annual basis to build its profiles. HOUSING UNITS, POPULATION, HOUSEHOLDS: The DrillDown assembles a list of residential addresses from municipal and proprietary tax assessment records, municipal building permit records, utility hookups, and credit bureau records. Households, or occupied units, are determined by multiplying the total number of residential addresses by the vacancy rate, determined through analysis of utility usage records, at the block group level, Total popu- lation is calculated by multiplying the number of households by the average household size and adding this number to the population in group quarters. Average household size and population in group quarters is provided at the block group level by the most recent census trend projections.

Priscilla A. Thompson City Clerk ami DrillDown Social Compact Catalyzing Business Investment in Inner City Neighborhoods MARKET STRENGTH/BUYING POWER figures address the population's consumer potential, gauging purchasing power by estimating aggregate income and income density and ad- justing these figures to account for the estimated monetary value of unregulated economic activity (or the informal economy) within a neighborhood. Income estimates provided by the census, and census derived projections, are now outdated and prone to well -understood inaccuracies resulting from self reported income. In contrast, the DrillDown analysis incor- porates the most recent income estimates from the three major credit bureaus. When aggregated to the neighborhood level, higher average household incomes result in concentrated buying power greater than previously understood. Moreover, higher population density in inner-city neighborhoods translates into concentrated buying power that supersedes their suburban counterparts, even in cases where average household incomes are comparatively lower. Traditional market analysis models used by retailers and financial institutions over- look the significant buying power generated by the local informal economy and therefore misinform private sector investment decisions. Information gaps and poor market data can drastically influence the economic prospects of neighborhoods, particularly in low income areas where traditional demographic data does not accurately capture market potential. Accurate measurements of a community's total economic activity may attract new investment and assist policy makers in identifying those barriers that prevent small and medium en- terprises from entering the formal market. Increased information on small businesses operating in under -regulated environments might encourage the engagement of mainstream small business lenders. INCOME: Unadjusted household income estimates are derived in a series of calculations. Fir,t, a count is made of the number of individuals per income bracket, as determined by the three credit bureau income estimates. Then, the average income at the block group level is calculated by applying the Bureau of Labor and Statistics Consumer Expenditure Survey's estimated average income for individuals within a particular income range (pro)ected from 2004 to 2006) to the income distribution determined. The third calculation adjusts the income estimate to account for informal economic activity. By weighting the follow- ing eight proxies, the DrillDown estimates the monetary value of unregulated economic activity: house- hold with income below $30,000; difference between household income and household expenditures; the percentage of households with no credit record; the percentage of utility payments made in cash; the number of nontraditional financial service providers per household and per acre; the difference between estimated housing costs and real home values; and the percent foreign born population.

Thompson City Clerk MARKET STABILITY/RISK indicators further gauge the viability of business investment in a neighborhood; assessing the presence of community stakeholders and demonstrating trends in real estate property values and crime. Through an estimation of owner occupied units and buildings, the DrillDown assesses homeownership, a factor widely thought to increase individual investment in a community. Since a greater proportion of urban housing stock is multi -unit or multi -family, when compared to suburban hous- ing, Social Compact assesses owner occupancy by building and in so doing reveals a greater number o neighborhood stakeholders. For example, a resident who owns a three -unit building may live in one unit while renting out the other two; owner occupancy measured by unit is 33%; whereas occupancy by building is 100%.

Thompson City Clerk ami DrillDown Social Compact Catalyzing Business Investment in Inner City Neighborhoods A survey of major retailers identified crime and perceptions of crime as the number one factor influent- ng retailers' decisions to locate in underserved markets; 93% of respondents viewed crime as a signifi- cant or very significant factor in their location decisions (1). Popular media ploys a crucial role in shap- ing perceptions of inner city neighborhoods, disproportionately reporting incidents of crime and exacer- bating existing stereotypes. In contrast, Social Compact analyzes reported incidents of crime over multi -year period and as related to population density, repeatedly uncovering decreasing crime rates that compare favorably with crime rates across a metro area. CRIME: Social Compact examines crime data at the block group level, as part of its neighborhood risk and stability analysis. Crime statistics, obtained from local police records, are gathered longitudinally to assess trends in documented criminal activity over time. In order to maintain consistency across compari- sons of time and geography, Social Compact uses population and household counts from Census 2000 and not current DrillDown estimates; and employs the Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FBI) Uniform Criminal Reporting (UCR) coding to define property and violent crime (see below). Unless otherwise stated, trends are reported for the start of the earliest year through the end of the latest year for which data was obtained (i.e. "2002 — 2005' is equivalent to January 1 2002 — December 31 2005). VIOLENT CRIME includes reported incidents of murder, forcible rape, robbery, and aggravated assault (in accordance with FBI UCR coding). PROPERTY CRIME includes reported incidents of arson, burglary, larceny/theft, and motor vehicle theft (in accordance with FBI UCR coding). COMMUNITY CRIME includes reported incidents of blighted properties, disorderly conduct, littering, loi- tering, prostitution, trespassing and vandalism. Social Compact designed this indicator to assess visible incidents of crime that, although not typically included in many official crime statistics, may be of particu- lar interest to the business community.

While these anomalies may be known intuitively by business leaders in a community, Social Compact DrillDown data provides a more accurate foundation for devising business attraction strategies. Access to tradi- tional financial services and fresh food are essential components of comprehensive community development, yet many mainstream financial institutions and supermarkets tend not to invest in the inner city as they are largely unaware of the economic potential. As a result, many inner city neighborhoods have fewer traditional financial institutions and grocery stores per capita when compared to suburban neighborhoods.

This lack of access often translates to higher costs for basic financial transactions (2).
