The city of Los Angeles' financial data is also up on the OpenGov platform. https://losangeles.opengov.com

It's a positive trend for governments to share their data and be more transparent with their citizens.

This is amazing; I had no idea this existed. Thanks for sharing.

FINALLY! The only open data they had prior to this was stuff put together by the LA Times' Data Desk and one lonely GIS data site for maps and parcel data. Glad to see Garcetti is following through on opening up this data!

On that note, Colorado has something slightly similar implemented, except with a different underlying platform (Socrata): http://data.colorado.gov

This is a Socrata site as well.

Oh, for some reason I didn't notice.
