A new mash up site with neighborhood information. I tried it out last night. I found it to be easy to use and really kind of cool. It had neighborhood information including:

Kind of a one stop shopping site for neighborhood information. I know that because it is on the internet the information has to be accurate but I will check some of it when I get the chance.

As a follow up to this I compared the data on neighboroo with data from a trusted source, data from the census bureau. The data does not match. the census data is precise in that it says "median" income, and uses words like average. The neighoroo data does not. Pat Kintano researched neighboroo for his blog and states that they will not disclose at this point where they are getting the data from. All I can sat if it can't be disclosed it shouldn't be used.
