What makes a neighborhood feel lively, welcoming and connected? And how can cities better understand what their commercial corridors need to thrive?

SF New Deal’s Vibrancy Index offers a new way to measure neighborhood vibrancy, turning a complex concept into data that can help guide local investment and decision-making. Join SPUR for a conversation with SF New Deal, design firm Gehl and community partners from neighborhoods where the index has been implemented.

Together, we’ll explore what the data reveals about San Francisco’s commercial corridors, how it complements local knowledge and experience, and how a shared understanding of neighborhood vibrancy can help inform more responsive, community-driven approaches to strengthening local places.
