| “Hidden in Plain Sight” set out to assess the national market for transit-oriented development (TOD). To achieve |
| this, the Center for Transit-Oriented Development (CTOD) built a database containing demographic information for |
| the nation’s 3,341 existing fixed transit stops and the 630 additional stations that are scheduled to be built by |
| 2025. Working with Strategic Economics, CTOD used the demographic information in the database to identify the |
| types of households that have a preference for living in transit-oriented communities. Along with information on |
| national real estate and consumer trends, “Hidden in Plain Sight” assesses the potential demand for TOD. |
