No ZIP is too small to score: 29403 passes through the same foreclosure, tax, mortgage and bank-stress model as any major-metro ZIP, so its 36/100 composite is a like-for-like number rather than an isolated estimate. The score is rebuilt from public data as it updates, so 29403 reflects the current record instead of a stale or modeled snapshot.

Behind 29403'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.
