The 10002 read uses the identical public-record model applied coast to coast, which means its 22/100 score means exactly what it means anywhere else, and 10002 stays directly comparable to neighboring ZIPs and the rest of New York County, New York. The score is rebuilt from public data as it updates, so 10002 reflects the current record instead of a stale or modeled snapshot.

10002's score blends several independent layers — foreclosure and mortgage stress, tax and lien delinquency, bank headwind and structural exposure — into one 0–100 number, so understanding the components matters as much as the headline for anyone screening the ZIP. For a buyer, 10002 is one row in a larger workflow: confirm the score, pull the distressed parcels behind it, then move from signal to funded, closed acquisition through DLRadar.
