LOCALIZATION:
US CENSUS-INTERNATIONAL MIGRATION-LOCALIZE IT: International migrants were attracted to some of the largest, most urban counties in the U.S. last year, often blunting population losses from locals moving out and helping urban cores recover from the loss of residents and businesses during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. We provide context and resources from the Census Bureau for localizing the story. Find the latest Localize It guides.
SPRING HOMEBUYING SEASON-LOCALIZE IT: Shop for a home now or hold out for possibly lower mortgage rates?

We provide reporting suggestions and resources for looking at related legislation in at least 15 states. Find the latest Localize It guides.
US--NEBRASKA SALES TAX INCREASE-LOCALIZE IT: Nebraska lawmakers advanced a bill Tuesday that would raise the state’s sales tax to 6.5% -- one of the highest in the country.
