# Georgia Civic Data

> Standardized public data about Georgia.

We gather public data from dozens of sources, make it consistent, and share it free with researchers, reporters, policymakers, and anyone curious.

- **102** datasets on education, Census, and immigration
- Years covered, varying by dataset: **1990–2026**
- [Browse all datasets](https://georgiacivicdata.org/api/datasets)
- Example chart: [Georgia’s four-year graduation rate by race, 2011–2024](https://georgiacivicdata.org/dashboard?t=education/graduation_rate_4_year_cohort&d=states&by=race&y=2011-2024)

## Four ways into the same data

- [Data Explorer](https://georgiacivicdata.org/dashboard): A point-and-click chart builder. Pick a dataset, place, and breakdowns to get a shareable, reproducible chart.
- [Data Talk](https://georgiacivicdata.org/datatalk): Ask in plain language and get answers built only from the published numbers, with sources shown.
- [API](https://georgiacivicdata.org/api): Every cleaned dataset in JSON, CSV, or Parquet, filterable by year, place, and demographics. For developers.
- [MCP server](https://georgiacivicdata.org/mcp): Connect Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini straight to Georgia data and ask questions inside the tools you already use. For AI assistants.

## The standardizing is the work

“Available” public data is rarely usable: it lives in PDFs and ad-hoc spreadsheets, and the same idea is named ten different ways. We normalize geography, demographics, time, and column names so the datasets fit together.

- **Consistent across agencies:** We unify geography, demographics, time, and column names so datasets from dozens of agencies finally fit together.
- **Built to be joined:** Shared keys let you link across datasets and domains without writing custom data engineering first.
- **Made for AI-native access:** The same clean data flows into an MCP server, so you can ask questions where you already work.
