City Startups City Startups are college aged students living in young areas with active night lives and inexpensive businesses. These residents have low incomes and tend to be more ethnically diverse.

Mobility Blues
This category features low-income singles. Mobility Blues members do not have much spending power, but because they do not have children, they have more free time for social activities.
Psychographics group people who share the same lifestyle, stage in life and belief system.The profiles listed above represent the five most common types of people living in Champaign County, according to PRIZM data.
