How this service works
Official monthly permit, 311, and code-violation counts and year-over-year change for a neighborhood, ZIP, city, or county. Each series cites its dataset. Coverage follows the source-card registry and lane availability; unsupported or thin places get a charge-free diagnostic. npx @velinussage/locus-agent-skill add.
Output
A JSON object containing a 'local_trend_brief' for the queried place, including categorized signals across tax, zoning, flood, permits, recorded sales, development, and legislation — each line cited to its original government source. Includes caveats about data limitations.
Example use cases
Commercial space zoning and tax verification
“We're evaluating three potential office locations for our startup. Can you run property scans on each address to check zoning compliance, recent tax assessments, and any pending permits or development activity that might affect our lease?”
Flood risk and insurance planning assessment
“I'm looking at a few rental properties in the area and want to understand the flood risk situation before committing. Can you pull the government flood data and any recent permit filings for these addresses so I know what insurance and prevention measures to expect?”
Neighborhood development and future value analysis
“Before I invest in this neighborhood, can you scan the area for recent development filings, zoning changes, new legislation, and permit activity? I want to see if there's anything in the pipeline that could affect property values over the next few years.”

Endpoint
POSThttps://api.locus.report/api/locus-local-trend-brief?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need comprehensive, government-cited public records for a specific U.S. address or place — especially for homebuyer or renter due diligence, small business siting, or community research. It is the right choice when source attribution matters and you need tax, zoning, flood, permit, sales, and legislative data aggregated in one call. Prefer it over generic search when you need structured, traceable government data rather than web-scraped summaries.
Side effects
- Unrecognized or non-U.S. place string returns an error or empty signals array
- Invalid intent enum value causes request rejection
- lookbackMonths outside 1–60 range returns validation error
- Place string too vague (e.g. a common street name without city) may yield ambiguous or empty results
- Payment failure (x402) results in a 402 response before processing
- Government source data may be stale or incomplete for rural or low-coverage areas
