We're proud to announce the Kansas City metro area is now available to explore on the National Zoning Atlas!

A housing market governed across 212 local jurisdictions, 14 counties, and two states, the Kansas City metro offers many lessons for how zoning shapes housing development and access across a region.

Presenters will walk through how NZA zoning data is collected and analyzed, and demonstrate how to navigate NZA interactive tools. The webinar will also debut novel research on zoning trends and demographic patterns from an accompanying report to be released that same day.

MARC is conducting the region’s first Housing and Transportation Coordination Plan to align regional housing and transportation goals to lower household cost burden, prioritize efficient land use, and create livable communities. To develop a well-rounded understanding of housing and transportation issues across the region, MARC is engaging stakeholders in a variety of ways to gather feedback on questions related to the intersection of housing, transportation, and economic development issues.
