Sources and methodology
Every measure on this page is scored for each neighborhood, then rolled up to Marriott's Griffin Gate Golf Culb, Lexington. Scores are absolute rather than ranked, which means a 60 in Marriott's Griffin Gate Golf Culb, Lexington represents the same real quantity as a 60 anywhere else, and the ranking is a weighted average of those absolutes. The map colors come from a national scale calibrated against a population weighted random sample of 5,000 neighborhoods. That absolute scoring is what no other places-to-live ranking does: it puts a single neighborhood, a town, a metro, and a state on one scale, so the same 40 measures answer both which metro to move to and which street inside it to buy on.
