This challenge is SO CLOSE! Only a handful of communities remain! See our spatial analysis for tips on which communities these may be. 

The original post from March 3, 2022 has additional tips and tricks.

Remaining Communities  

If you’ve been following us since we first launched city halls as a feature type, you may recall that Georgia and South Carolina were some of the earlier states to have their own designated challenge. You may also recall that, as city halls have progressed, we started providing volunteers with hints about remaining communities towards the end of each challenge. However, since we didn’t start providing this information until later in the game, we’re revisiting these earlier states to capture any city / town halls that may have been omitted during the original challenges.  

To identify these communities, we overlaid US Census’s Incorporated Places dataset with all the city / town hall features collected to date. The results help us identify communities that do not yet have a city / town hall point within their corporate boundaries. We then limited the results to communities with a population greater than 500 since larger communities are more likely to have their own designated city hall. The map below highlights communities that may still need to have a city / town hall point collected. 

NOTE that this does not mean every one of these communities is missing a point.  It is possible that some of these communities do not have a building that fits our definition of a city / town hall while others may have already been collected but their city / town hall falls outside their corporate boundary.   

Please help us research these communities and determine if a city / town hall exists!
