This is the 2nd Edition of the flagship report with new information about the state of development in the United States. Measuring Sprawl 2014 will look at development patterns in 221 metropolitan areas across the country and evaluate which communities are the least and most sprawling in the country. The report will score and rank every metropolitan area in the country based on its development, using a four factor system developed by researchers at the University of Utah's Metropolitan Research Center. This report will also look at how life in those communities is related to development patterns. The report will include information about economic mobility, life expectancy, household costs, health , safety and transportation options all as they relate to development.
