Case Study: USDA Rural Housing Service streamlines rural investment tracking with PolicyMap

USDA Rural Housing Service - Customer Case Study

USDA Rural Housing Service (RHS) needed a better way to track the progress of its growing portfolio of rural housing, health clinic, and community facility projects as activity surged after a budget increase. To stay organized and better demonstrate impact, RHS turned to PolicyMap, using its mapping and data platform to help identify areas in need of investment and monitor loan and project activity more effectively.

PolicyMap worked with USDA Rural Housing Service to build a mapping tool that centralized USDA investment data alongside other community indicators, helping users pinpoint underserved areas and make better decisions. The solution made USDA data easier to access for both internal experts and the public, reducing routine data requests and freeing RHS staff to focus more on high-level analysis and decision-making.
