Does Pursuit Include Tribal Governments?

Quick Answer

Yes. Pursuit includes 573 tribal government accounts across the U.S. Every account has a name and state. 430 have an official website, and 467 include census data such as median age, household income, poverty, housing, and education. Filter by the Tribal Government account type to add them to territory planning.

What This Is

Tribal governments buy public safety, health, housing, utilities, and education services, and they run their own procurement. Pursuit now covers them as their own account type, with the same kind of account profile you use for cities, counties, and school districts.

How It Works

What each account includes

• Government name and state

• Official website, where one exists

• Population estimate for the associated tribal area

• Census data, where available: median age, household income, poverty rate, housing, and education statistics

Finding tribal governments

Filter by Tribal Government under account type in Explore. [VERIFY: also available as an Entity Type filter in Intel] Combine it with a state filter to scope a region, such as tribal governments in Arizona and New Mexico.

Prioritizing with demographics

Use population and census data to rank accounts. For example, sort by population to find the largest communities, or compare household income and housing data to find where a housing or utility program fits.

What It Doesn't Do

Not every account has full data. 143 accounts have no website listed and 106 have no census data. The population estimate counts people living in the associated tribal area. It is not the tribe's enrolled membership.

Next Step

Filter by Tribal Government in Explore, then add the accounts you want to a Research worksheet to score and prioritize them.
