No ZIP is too small to score: 62207 passes through the same foreclosure, tax, mortgage and bank-stress model as any major-metro ZIP, so its 34/100 composite is a like-for-like number rather than an isolated estimate. Where the public record is thin for 62207, the field stays empty rather than modeled, and fills in as new documents post.

Behind 62207'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.
