The way to work Pope County, Arkansas is top-down — start with the highest-scoring ZIPs (up to 20/100 here), then drill to the parcels driving those numbers, rather than blanketing Pope County with undifferentiated outreach. All Pope County inputs are public record — recorder, court, FHFA and FDIC — and the score is rebuilt on ingest rather than modelled forward.

Drilling in, Pope County's highest-scoring ZIPs are 72080 (20/100), 72801 (20/100), 72802 (20/100), 72837 (20/100), 72843 (20/100), 72858 (20/100). DLRadar also scores 72063, 72823, 72847, 72839, 72846, 72679, 72686, 72856 across the county. Every one of these is scored independently — a ZIP's composite reflects its own recorded distress, which is why the county average alone hides where the real pressure sits.

The Pope County score is not a single measure but a composite: foreclosure activity, mortgage and tax-lien stress, and local lender headwind each feed it, which is why understanding the components matters as much as the headline number.
