Are your taxes paying for the cost of your street? Nitin Gadia has created an interactive mapping tool to explore the answer to this question in his hometown of Ames, Iowa. Nitin works for MapStory, an open platform for organizing our knowledge about how the world changes over time and space. We highly recommend that you visit http://www.strongtowns.org/journal/2016/2/11/podcast-nitin-gadia-on-mapping to view the map we discuss in this episode, as well as a guide for creating your own map and more from Nitin.
