While preparing and analyzing the City's budget, the Bureau of Budget and Management Research (BBMR) considers the economic health of the City. Quarterly Economic Indicator reports are created jointly with the Baltimore Development Corporation. In Fiscal 2021, BBMR produced monthly reports, Revenue Thermometer, as a way to keep a closer eye on revenue during the COVID-19 pandemic. The most recent reports can be found below.
