Also, a lot of individual states have good data banks (e.g. CA, Vermont) with data on a variety of topics, while others states have almost nothing available online. If you care, some states like Vermont also have a separate geospatial data site, while California has CalEnviroScreen which is specifically for environmental data.

In my experience, private organizations sometimes have spotty/incomplete data, but that definitely varies. Certain countries outside the U.S. have substantial data hosted by the government at the national, regional, etc. level.
