###Problem: it may be difficult (or impossible) to determine census tract for VC, Fortune 500, and Medical Centers.
##McNair Center data on Medical Centers, Hubs, and Accelerators
#Chronology
##Is there a moment when these areas became "innovation districts"? Could we compare before and after in the data?
###In most cases the designation is aspirational.
###It seems that for many of the areas included in the original report, they became "innovation districts" when the authors included them in the report. This is particularly true for the "anchor-plus" model (med center &/or corporate HQ plus surrounding urban area).
###Audits of OKC & Philly include lengthy discussion of ways in which these districts do not fit the model, could make changes to better fit the model, etc.
###For Kendall Square and South Lake Union, it would most likely be possible to find specific chronological moments.
