# Demographic Functions
The Demographic Snapshot enables you to collect demographic reports around a point location. For example, you can take the coordinates of a coffee shop and find the average population characteristics, such as total population, educational attainment, housing and income information around that location. You can use raw street addresses by combining the Demographic Snapshot with CartoDB's geocoding features. If you need help creating coordinates from addresses, see the [Geocoding Functions](/cartodb-platform/dataservices-api/geocoding-functions/) documentation.
