We encourage you to apply multiple open data sets to explore your city’s most pressing sustainability issues across economic, environmental, social, cultural, and housing factors. Examples of integrated sustainability problems could be: <ul> <li>How can I help my community find green spaces for outdoor activities via Google, Bing maps?</li> <li>How do I help my community better understand the impact of commercial economic development on affordable housing?</li> <li>How can I help my community identify local sustainable job opportunities?</li> </ul> <strong>To learn more visit <a href="http://uscensusbureau.github.io/citysdk/index.html">http://uscensusbureau.github.io/citysdk/index.html</a></strong> <strong>Don't forget to share with your community by tweeting at @uscensusbureau #citySDK #hackforchange</strong></p>
