No ZIP is too small to score: 60072 passes through the same foreclosure, tax, mortgage and bank-stress model as any major-metro ZIP, so its 26/100 composite is a like-for-like number rather than an isolated estimate. Nothing here is interpolated — where a source is thin for 60072, DLRadar leaves it blank rather than guessing, and re-scores as new records post.

Behind 60072'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 60072 score is action: it tells you whether to open the ZIP, and DLRadar takes it from there to parcels, funding and close.
