For a like-for-like read, Dakota Ridge and Quail Hollow score within a fraction of it. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $101,850. 60% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.8/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
