The Catchment
A weekly check on the neighborhood your congregation thinks it is in.
Most congregational planning starts with a number — "we serve a neighborhood of 20,000 people" — and then treats that number as if it described 20,000 doors. This publication checks that habit against public data, one claim at a time, and shows its work: every figure has a named query behind it and a way for you to re-run it.
