Every figure is auditable to a public dataset and refreshed on ingest; 71368 shows blanks, not estimates, wherever the record is sparse.

Behind 71368'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.
