Parks as Places

Place Score was developed to help government and the private sector with instant access to the values of your community and the performance of your places.We offer human-centric data that is rigorous, representative and place-based. We measure what matters so you can make the decisions that most benefit your community.Significant effort is made to engage communities but it’s typically project by project, with inefficient research methods that aren’t cost-effective. Representation of cultural diversity, youth and other hard-to-reach groups can be poor. Loud voices often dominate but may not represent the majority. And insights tend to be general rather than place specific.We’re here to change that.At Place Score, we believe people-focused places create a sense of identity and belonging that delivers happier, healthier and more resilient communities. People-focused places support self-sustaining and successful local economies, ultimately becoming desirable destinations with a point of difference that attracts investment and grows opportunities.Place Score’s purpose is to empower everyone, everywhere, to have their say in the decisions that affect these everyday places. In turn, this informs and guides councils, developers and landlords, helping them to prioritise their investments and plan appropriately for the future.
