Stories

Analysis and reporting that goes deeper into what the data reveals about housing and lending in America.

Data-Driven Stories

Plat Stories will combine narrative journalism with the underlying HMDA data — examining lending patterns in specific cities, tracking change over time, and surfacing findings that raw numbers alone don't tell.

Stories coming soon

The first stories are in development. They will explore lending disparities in major metros, how the COVID-19 pandemic affected mortgage originations by race, and changes in FHA lending since 2018.
