# Demographic Functions
The Demographic Snapshot API function enables you to collect demographic details around a point location. For example, you can take the coordinates of a coffee shop and find the average population characteristics around that location. If you need help creating coordinates from addresses, see the [Geocoding Functions](/cartodb-platform/dataservices-api/geocoding-functions/) documentation.
