Nothing here is interpolated — where a source is thin for 26619, DLRadar leaves it blank rather than guessing, and re-scores as new records post.

The 5/100 figure for 26619 is a composite, not one metric: it rolls up foreclosure and pre-foreclosure activity, mortgage stress, tax delinquency and liens, local lender headwind, and structural risk into a single reading, which is why a ZIP can look calm on price yet score high on distress.
