The affordability dashboard for Moores Hill, IN aggregates Census ACS 5-Year Estimates across 1 ZIP code covering 3,289 residents, then layers in county-level federal data to produce an overall grade of D (47/100). The headline inputs are median household income of $66,950, median home value of $245,800, median rent of $1,375 per month, and 20.5% of adults holding a bachelor's degree or higher. These four metrics alone explain most of the variance between city dashboards.

Cross-agency feeds widen the picture beyond Census demographics. HUD publishes a Fair Market Rent for a 2-bedroom in this county at $1,353 per month (studio $958, 1BR $1,051, 3BR $1,785, 4BR $1,976).

Reading the overall grade requires reading all seven dimensions together. The score weights Income 20%, Safety 20%, Housing 15%, Rent 15%, Education 10%, Commute 10%, and Childcare 10%, with each sub-score benchmarked against national percentiles rather than state averages — so the grade is genuinely comparable across any city in the country. Pressure points are education, commute. Unemployment currently reads 3.5% and poverty 8.0% — numbers worth keeping alongside the headline grade.
