We combine public data into new calculations — percentiles, monthly averages, seasonal patterns, distances — and write our own text around them. Where a source’s own words or photos appear, they are quoted briefly or credited under their license. Headlines from news sites and the city link back to the original articles; we don’t republish their content.
