ZIP 57021 Foreclosure, Tax-Lien & Distress Report

Turner County, South Dakota's ZIP 57021 registers 23/100 composite distress, which DLRadar reads as low. What sets it apart are the readings on construction/permit lag (54/100), structural risk (53/100), institutional ownership (51/100). Climate and flood risk are elevated too — flood (NFIP) exposure (89/100), FEMA disaster exposure (71/100). Structurally it carries 53/100, against 0/100 of stress already in motion.

The peak-phase market in 57021 posted values that rose 2.5% over the year, at 15/100 phase confidence. At a peak the opportunity is selective — specific stressed parcels, not a broad discount.

Median household income is $74,594, near the U.S. median near $78,000. Around 55% of adults hold a bachelor's degree or higher. 85% of housing is owner-occupied. The ZIP holds roughly 130 housing units. On demographic stress specifically, 57021 scores 15/100. 6.6% of residents fall below the poverty threshold. Vacancy runs 4.1%. Population is roughly 356 with a median age of 46.

On balance 57021 is mixed, rewarding parcel-by-parcel screening over broad assumptions. While 57021 carries no listed distressed parcels today, each signal above ties back to a public dataset on the same national scale.

No ZIP is too small to score: 57021 passes through the same foreclosure, tax, mortgage and bank-stress model as any major-metro ZIP, so its 23/100 composite is a like-for-like number rather than an isolated estimate. The score is rebuilt from public data as it updates, so 57021 reflects the current record instead of a stale or modeled snapshot.

Behind 57021'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. The point of the 57021 score is action: it tells you whether to open the ZIP, and DLRadar takes it from there to parcels, funding and close.
