PSRC maintains a regional data development and research program in support of transportation, growth management and economic development planning in the central Puget Sound region. Through this program, we deliver data and technical assistance to our local member governments and agencies, as well as to private firms and businesses, educational institutions, community organizations, citizens and others in the general public.

Our products include data sets, reports, maps and GIS files that are available free as public records. As a regional affiliate of the Washington State Data Center, we also maintain an extensive repository of U.S. Census Bureau data for the region.

If you report data developed by us, please credit the Puget Sound Regional Council as the source.

Disclaimer - PSRC data is developed and analyzed at a level of detail commensurate with our planning mandates and responsibilities. PSRC makes no warranties, expressed or implied, of the accuracy of results or analysis derived from projects or studies utilizing PSRC data that are not conducted or sponsored by PSRC. PSRC staff are available to advise users of data limitations; however, final determination as to the appropriate use of the data must be made entirely by the user, firm or agency undertaking the project or study.

Data Analysis and Forecasting at the PSRC  [pdf]

These new tools are part of an overall integrated modeling framework that will eventually simulate all persons and vehicles at the parcel level in the region.
