What Locus
knows.
Locus reads a place back to you — any US city or ZIP code, from live sources, at the moment you ask for it.
What you can see
Live weather
Temperature, conditions, humidity and wind, from OpenWeatherMap at the moment you ask.
Crime
Real incident reports from the Chicago Data Portal. Chicago ZIP codes only — the card is hidden everywhere else rather than filled with something borrowed.
Demographics
Population, median income, age, ethnicity and education, from the Census ACS.
Restaurants
Picks worth leaving the house for, filterable by budget, rating and cuisine.
Events
Concerts, sport and theatre nearby, via Ticketmaster, widening the radius rather than showing another city's listings.
Ask anything
A chatbot scoped to the place you are looking at, so the answers are about there and nowhere else.
Browse a city
Every neighborhood and ZIP code in a city, anywhere in the country.
Compare
Two ZIP codes side by side — weather, crime and demographics against each other.
Plan a trip
A multi-city itinerary with dates, attractions, hotels and the forecast for each stop.
How it works
Search a city
Or click anywhere on the map to pick one.
We fetch it live
Every source is called on demand, at the moment you ask.
Read the place
Weather, safety, who lives there, and what is on this week.
Nothing is pre-loaded and nothing is cached between visits. That is also why a place with no data shows nothing rather than something from somewhere else.
