RESOURCES AVAILABLE WITH MISSIONINSITE
  • QuickInsite, FullInsite and ExecutiveInsite Reports. The user-friendly, four-page QuickInsite Report provides just enough information for a first look at your area. A FullInsite report provides 18 pages of community demographic information integrating data, graphs and text analysis. The ExecutiveInsite Report provides a strategic analysis of your area around 12 “insites” that are essential for ministry planning.

    All data provided by MissionInsite contains current-year updates for population, households, and families in the study area, as well as age, income, ethnicity, phase of life (generational) and MOSAIC segmentation (lifestyle) information. Many variables are integrated into five-year projections.

  • Analysis Tools. Choose from preset geographies such as ZIP codes, U.S. Census tracts, cities or counties, or from your own custom geographies to create “real time” demographic reports.
  • ViewPoint. “Insite” into the beliefs, values, and lifestyle preferences of the community selected. ViewPoint provides 120 current variables for religious practices, lifestyle preferences, personal preferences, life concerns and well being, social values, and charitable contributions.
  • Optional Congregant Plotting. Plot your current church members/visitors on a custom map you create.
