1Point3Acres (simplified Chinese: 一亩三分地; traditional Chinese: 一畝三分地; lit. '1.3 mu of land', metaphorically referring to one's own space) is a Chinese-language website. It is a forum for Chinese people in North America who are students and workers to discuss schools, employers, and the visa policy of the United States.
It was co-founded in 2009 by a man who goes by the username Warald and Guo Yu (Chinese: 郭昱). 1Point3Acres in January 2020 created CovidNet to track real-time data about COVID-19 on a county level including information about infections, recoveries, and deaths. By June 2020, CovidNet was used by over 500 groups and by June 2021, it had received over 500 billion views. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Esri, Johns Hopkins University, and the University of Chicago used it to track the outbreak.
