No ZIP is too small to score: 17022 passes through the same foreclosure, tax, mortgage and bank-stress model as any major-metro ZIP, so its 28/100 composite is a like-for-like number rather than an isolated estimate. The score is rebuilt from public data as it updates, so 17022 reflects the current record instead of a stale or modeled snapshot.

Behind 17022's composite sit distinct signals (foreclosure, mortgage, tax-lien, lender and structural), each scored on its own before rolling up, so two ZIPs with the same total can describe very different situations on the ground. For an operator, 17022 is step one - verify, pull the parcels driving the score, and move straight through to a funded close.
