== Search for Local Data Stories ==<br />
As we launch Local Data Stories we begin with a set of content that we have populated for [[:Category:Albany NY|Albany, New York]]. These are stories that analyze the [[:Category:Albany NY|City of Albany]]'s housing, crime, population, taxes, state funding and more. To understand the types of stories that you will see over time (and potentially to give you some ideas on data stories that you can write!), search using terms such as "Albany", "Crime", "Finance" and more. <br />
<br />
We also have the concept of a "[[Hub:Albany Data Stories|Hub]]" where a group is focused on a broader storytelling effort. <br />
<br />
As more stories get added to Local Data Stories we will provide additional cues on interesting search terms. <br />
