The report card comprises two parts: a core metrics analysis authored by Boston Indicators and a special analysis of affordable housing development on publicly-owned land co-authored by the Boston University Initiative on Cities (IOC).
The overall design builds on the Boston Foundation’s existing brand standards and showcases a clean, modern layout featuring bold, color-coded sections that guide readers through its core metrics and special analyses. Infographics, charts, and tables are strategically integrated to visually represent data, making it easier to grasp trends discussed in the report.
