TYLER — Texas comptroller introduces new statewide online tool designed to put the latest economic and demographic data directly into the hands of Texans. According to our news partner KETK, Texas comptroller Kelly Hancock launched the new online tool, ‘TEXSTATS Dashboard’, today during a visit to Tyler.
Hancock has been in this role since June, giving Texans easier access to information. The technology is all available right now on the Texas comptroller’s website.
“We provide this information online where they can access it and they can learn about education in the area,” Hancock said. “They can learn about population growth in the area. They can learn all the demographics as well.”
Drawing from federal databases, the numbers go back ten years and include healthcare access trends, and even industry strength trade activity.
Hancock’s team hopes this new tool will give healthcare leaders, local governments, researchers and businesses reliable information to better serve East Texas.
“I really felt like if I could give people the data that they needed, you know, at the local level, that they could then take that data and use it to do good for their communities,” Hancock’s Data Analysis Director Will Counihan said.
