Miami Valley Commercial Development Assessment

The Miami Valley Regional Planning Commission (MVRPC) is pleased to announce the release of the Miami Valley Commercial Development Assessment.

The Miami Valley Commercial Development Assessment, as part of Going Places: An Integrated Land Use Vision for the Miami Valley Region, is an attempt to measure the existing condition of commercial development by analyzing the land use and building space inventory and to identify how future development planning might appropriately compliment the needs and resources of the Region.

The analysis is organized into four main sections: a land-based analysis, a building-based analysis, and two market analyses, one for office development and one for retail development. The Assessment also offers a projection of commercial employment to 2040. For this study, both spatial and non-spatial socio-economic data were collected and developed at the parcel, tract, and Traffic Analysis Zone (TAZ) levels and employment data at the county and TAZ levels. The data are examined geographically, graphically, and in tabular form.
