Data Sources & Accuracy
Official Government Data:Demographics and housing statistics are from the U.S. Census Bureau API (American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates). Weather and climate data comes from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) API with official climate normals from the nearest weather station. Crime statistics are from the FBI Crime Data Explorer API, with county-level data when available, otherwise state-level official data.
Modeled Estimates:Schools and some economic indicators are currently modeled using statistical methods based on national averages and regional patterns. For critical decisions, verify with official sources:
