DICKINSON, N.Y. — The Agency says it has developed a new Broome County dashboard to provide a snapshot of how the local economy is doing emerging from the virus crisis.

The organization worked on the project in partnership with data and software experts at eImpact, a Portland, Oregon–based company.

The dashboard monitors the economic health of Broome County by providing both baseline data as well as changes to the economy following the pandemic-influenced shutdown and subsequent phased reopening of the local economy.

During the initial response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Leadership Alliance between The Agency and the Greater Binghamton Chamber of Commerce surveyed the business community to target and address major needs.

Survey results indicated a “central, real-time source of accurate information” was the most-requested service outside of financial assistance.

Data points that the dashboard tracks include historical hiring trends, annual average income per industry, labor distribution, in addition to COVID-19 key performance indicators. Changes in employment, small-business revenue trends, and real-estate data are just some of the COVID-19 specific data sets included in the dashboard.

Information on how the data in the report was collected as well as sources used are included in the dashboard.
