The demographic-stress sub-score lands at 32/100.

On the whole, 35967 leans distressed, with opportunity clustered in specific stressed parcels. There is no property file for 35967 at the moment; the composite and its components are still built from verifiable public records.

Because one deterministic model scores every ZIP, 35967's 27/100 can be lined up against any neighbor in Dekalb County, Alabama or any ZIP coast to coast. Nothing here is interpolated — where a source is thin for 35967, DLRadar leaves it blank rather than guessing, and re-scores as new records post.

The 27/100 figure for 35967 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. Practically, 35967 works as a screen — verify the reading, drill to the specific parcels driving it, and carry the deal through capital and closing on the platform.
