Read Lafayette County, Louisiana as a heat map for effort — the county's moderate composite of 35/100 hides wide ZIP-level variation, and the return comes from chasing the hot ZIPs, not the average. 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 Lafayette County data is thin.

Drilling in, Lafayette County's highest-scoring ZIPs are 70501 (36/100), 70503 (36/100), 70506 (36/100), 70507 (36/100), 70508 (36/100), 70520 (36/100). DLRadar also scores 70529, 70558, 70583, 70518, 70578, 70592, 70517, 70525 and more 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.

Under Lafayette County's headline composite sit distinct layers — recorded foreclosures, tax and lien delinquency, mortgage stress and bank headwind — each scored separately before they roll up, so the same total can describe very different markets.
