Two Metros, Side by Side

Pick any two metros. The bars share one scale across the gutter, so their lengths are the comparison - no need to read the numbers to see which builds more. Each metro is also flagged on its own against the U.S. average of about 4.2 units permitted per 1,000 residents.

This is a static no-JS tool: every card is pre-rendered and CSS reveals your two picks. Because the pair is chosen in the browser, the page cannot compute a pairwise winner without shipping JavaScript - so it gives you shared-scale bars and a fixed U.S.-average baseline instead, both honest without it. Figures are real Census BPS Annual 2025 permits over Census Vintage 2024 population.
