Official results - local, national and global
We did it! The 9th annual City Nature Challenge is done! Thank you so much for all your time, effort, and hard work in making this event as successful as it is – it literally could not happen without you!
The numbers that the official results are a snapshot of the way all the included projects looked at 9 am local time on May 6. When you look at the projects now you will also see everything that happened since then as well - the beauty and challenge of living data. I find it wonderfully parallel to the way time changes our own view of the world!

This marks four years in a row more than one million observations have been collected in four days in the global event. That’s a reflection of all the time and hard work everyone everywhere put into making observations and identifications. Whether you made many observations/identifications or only one, I am so grateful to have you all as CNC participants.
Watch out for a national event together using iNaturalist that will happen in late August/early September this year and mark your calendars now for next years City Nature Challenge. Next year’s City Nature Challenge is the 10 year anniversary, and our theme will be “Bring the Globe Together for Biodiversity: April 25-28, 2025.
Looking forward to seeing what we all find this summer!
