Field notes
The page says its dataset draws on IDOT outdoor-advertising permits and annual average daily traffic, Census ACS, OpenStreetMap, and Chicago community-area boundaries. Visitors can filter by corridor or try monthly budget levels, while neighborhood pages show structure counts, average daily vehicles, and typical estimated monthly prices. The site labels the price figures Perch Estimates and says the underlying data is refreshed yearly.
