Transforming Data Into Meaning and Meaning Into Action
Data. Meaning. Action.
For over 20 years, City Square Associates, Inc. has helped businesses and organizations identify, express, and achieve their strategic objectives. In all of our work, we endeavor to transform data into meaning, and meaning into action.
Deeply Rooted in Media
Much of our work over the years has been connected to helping both commercial and public media organizations learn about their audiences, and adapt to an ever-changing landscape of device habits and content interests.
Exceling in Education
We regularly partner with secondary and post-secondary institutions—ranging from private schools to community colleges to four-year universities—to help them learn more from their own students and faculty, and build long-term strategies around branding, admissions, and program development.
A Partner for Non-Profits
Part of our mission involves doing work that serves the common good, and we’re proud of the partnerships we’ve established across the not-for-profit world, which have allowed us to conduct research that is both impactful and fulfilling.

Testimonials
City Square Associates is our go-to primary research firm. They’ve helped us develop studies that resulted in true insights on a variety of aspects of our business: from our audience’s media consumption habits to why and how we bring in new members. We now have a better understanding of those people we are trying to reach and have been able to apply those findings to our programming and practices. The team is professional, insightful and extremely thorough.
We worked with City Square on multiple research initiatives (both quantitative and qualitative) before, during and after our strategic planning process. Their work has been fundamental to guiding us in data-driven decision making in service to our long-term sustainability.
Not only has the team at CSA put in an incredible amount of expertise, clear methodology, and best-practice into the research itself, but they have been invaluable strategic thought partners which added a depth to our work beyond the analyses.
Their ability to synthesize and convey information for different audiences (for example – Board, Staff, Major Donors) allowed us to utilize the research in a multitude of ways to educate, influence and mobilize us effectively. We are so grateful for the vital role that CSA has played in our ongoing transformation as an organization.
They coordinate expertly but are also flexible and adaptable
They follow through and deliver.
The team listens and learns deeply about our complex organization, so we’re true partners. They offer stellar analytics that lead to real decision-making power for our strategic planning.
The City Square team is a delight to work with and has become our “go to” for collaboration on strategy for projects and proposals. Their collegial approach, experience, and impeccable execution makes understanding complex challenges feel easy.
They are masters of details and nothing gets overlooked. They are able to read between the line and pick up on the nuances that the process and research is revealing.
Many consultants are good at being either strategic or tactical, but CSA is good at both.
