What are the neighborhoods in this city like? This is a question that movers and travelers ask all the time, and despite the information sources on the internet, there are few neighborhood guides to help people answer it. We describe formative research, including the Twitter Neighborhood TF-IDF map and an interview-based study of 17 recent movers and travelers. Based on this research, we then describe plans for construction of neighborhood guides based on social media posts in each neighborhood and publicly available data.
