In 2009, Data Driven Detroit partnered with Living Cities, the Detroit Office of Foreclosure Prevention and Response and Community Legal Resources (Michigan Community Resources) to conduct a survey of 1-4 unit residential structures and vacant lots in the City of Detroit. Surveyors went out in the field in August and September of 2009, and following this, data were entered into a database and cleaned. The survey collected information on property type, condition, vacancy, danger to the surrounding community, fire damage, and improvements on vacant lots.For more information on the DRPS, including aggregations and maps of the original data, please visit www.detroitparcelsurvey.org.Upon request, field description metadata is also available for this dataset.

This is a collection of layers created by Tian Xie(Intern in DDP) in August, 2018. This collection includes Detroit Parcel Data(Parcel_collector), InfoUSA business data(BIZ_INFOUSA), and building data(Building). The building and business data have been edited by Tian during field research and have attached images.

This data is intended as a reference material of street and alley vacations, but not designed for survey, accurate positioning, or legal documents. It is created as polygon feature class, vacation information based on field measurements, types of Right of Way, and citations of Journal of the Common Council (J.C.C.) and the plat Liber and Page is listed under the column titled 'Sub_Plat'. The paper maps of the Street and Alley Vacation, the raster layer version of those maps (Linen Map Markup Mosaic), and the Detroit parcel layer are used as base maps to create this data.

The street and alley vacations were recorded from 1831 to 2022 throughout the whole city, and it will be updated weekly. The existed and/or active street and alley vacations are ready to view, the authors are working on pending and historical records.

Land parcel data for all properties in the City of Detroit from the Office of the Assessor. These are the parcel boundaries for the 2024 tax year.The Parcels data set from the City of Detroit Office of the Assessor is updated daily with land parcel data for all properties within the City of Detroit. Records in this data set describe the assessed values, rights, ownership interests, most recent sales data, physical descriptions, and addresses associated with each parcel. Parcels are distinguished from lots or plots of land in that property ownership rights are the fundamental units of division between parcels. The graphic depiction of land parcels represents real property ownership within the City for both privately and publicly owned properties.Data maintenance note: Databases used by the Office of the Assessor for parcels data are checked for updates daily. If an update is detected, the published Parcels dataset is then updated to reflect the most recent data available. Similarly, Zoning data provided by the Buildings, Safety Engineering, and Environmental Department (BSEED) Zoning Division is checked for updates daily. If any updates are available, values in the Zoning field are updated to reflect the most recent zoning data available. The "Data Updated" date for the Parcels dataset reflects the most recent date any data updates were detected and incorporated into the Parcels dataset. The GIS / Land Records Maintenance Division in the Office of the Assessor manages the data integrity of the parcel file.

Location of different zoning codes in the city of Detroit, Michigan. Parcels sharing the same zoning code have been dissolved together, but remain separated by street boundaries.

The Detroit Future City Strategic Framework is a land use planning document that was released in 2012. It outlines recommendations for transforming Detroit's land use policies and codes over the next fifty years, and covers a broad range of issues from economic and workforce development to transportation and green infrastructure. The shapes in this file represent the 50-year recommended land use for the City of Detroit, based on this plan. The geographies are based off of dissolved parcels from the City of Detroit Planning and Development Department. Field description metadata is available for download.

Open in: [Superset)] [ArcGIS] or [Request format]Detroit Land Bank Authority (DLBA) Land Reuse Programs are designed to activate vacant land and provide low cost land ownership opportunities for residents. Programs offered by the DLBA include the Side Lots program, through which residents may purchase lots immediately adjacent to their home as well as programs for Neighborhood Lots, Oversized Lots, and Accessory Structure Lots. This dataset provides information on properties that have been sold by the DLBA through the Land Reuse Programs.Each row in the dataset represents a DLBA-acquired property that has been sold through a land reuse program and includes data about the closing date, sale price, parcel number, and location. Location information includes the property's street address, neighborhood, council district, and the geographical coordinates associated with the street address. The geographical coordinates are used to map the location of lots using point geometry.More information about the Auction Sales program is available through the DLBA Land Reuse Programs and Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) pages.Click here for the Analytics Hub visualization of this dataset.

Data Driven Detroit recieved a copy of the City of Detroit GIS parcel file in May of 2012. Data Driven Detroit was able to find records in the data that did not have corresponding polygons drawn. These missing parcel objects were then geocoded by address to determine an approximate position and give the shape of a smal square as a placeholder. These missing parcels are corrected by the city in subsequent releases of the parcel file.
