The way to work Aiken County, South Carolina is top-down — start with the highest-scoring ZIPs (up to 37/100 here), then drill to the parcels driving those numbers, rather than blanketing Aiken County with undifferentiated outreach. 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 Aiken County data is thin.

The ZIP breakdown for Aiken County leads with 29146 (37/100), 29137 (36/100), 29164 (36/100), 29801 (36/100), 29803 (36/100), 29805 (36/100). DLRadar also scores 29809, 29816, 29828, 29829, 29831, 29834, 29841, 29842 and more 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.

Under Aiken 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.
