For a like-for-like read, Historic Uptown and Spring Creek score within a fraction of it. The 3 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0 points apart at the extremes.
With little internal variation, 5.7/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
