Score Components

Every location includes standardized component evaluation so cross-location comparison stays structurally consistent.

Affordability Stability

Evaluates whether housing costs align sustainably with local income over time using rent burden, price-to-income, and cost growth relative to wages.

Component Score: 12 / 100

State: 11 / 100 percentile (low relative stability)

National: 12 / 100 percentile (low relative stability)

Market Volatility

Measures housing price consistency and resistance to boom-and-bust cycles that can destabilize long-term resident outcomes.

Component Score: 22 / 100

State: 18 / 100 percentile (low relative stability)

National: 22 / 100 percentile (below-average relative stability)

Supply Pressure

Tracks whether housing availability keeps pace with demand through inventory, construction pace, and local supply balance conditions.

Component Score: 89 / 100

State: 94 / 100 percentile (very strong relative stability)

National: 89 / 100 percentile (very strong relative stability)

Ownership Sustainability

Assesses long-term ownership viability through expense escalation, tax burden pressure, insurance overlap, and distress indicators.
