Approach Calhoun County by rank rather than by average — the 11/100 county figure conceals the spread, since the returns live in the top-scoring ZIPs. Every figure traces to a public federal or county source — recorder and court records for foreclosure and liens, FHFA for the price cycle, FDIC for lender stress — and DLRadar leaves a signal blank rather than estimating where Calhoun County data is thin.

The ZIP breakdown for Calhoun County leads with 62355 (13/100), 62006 (11/100), 62013 (11/100), 62036 (11/100), 62045 (11/100), 62047 (11/100). DLRadar also scores 62053 across the county. Because each ZIP is graded on its own foreclosure, tax and lender record, the county's distress is best read code by code rather than as a single number.

DLRadar's composite for Calhoun County blends several independent signals — foreclosure and pre-foreclosure filings, mortgage stress, tax delinquency and liens, and the bank-stress headwind of the lenders operating locally — into one 0–100 score per ZIP, so a market can rank high on one axis and low on another.
