Nowadays, I heard a company that provides neighborhood polygons for mapping purposes to companies like Google, Trulia, and Foursquare. They provide classical segmentation data such as demographics, income etc. & also the lifestyle data which is a value-added component to traditional maps that may help to bring primary mapping information into a meaningful context for users.

Therefore, these local statistics will help marketers to act & understand local markets. It is certain that, these approaches in marketing going to change marketing expenditures -it will be smarter; ability to monetize (see the results of) the marketing actions-
