How we ranked these neighborhoods

  1. Typical home value counts for 50%, typical home size for 25% and the year the typical home was built for 25%.
  2. Each number is compared with every neighborhood on this page, so 100 is the best on all three here.
  3. Home value is twice the median assessed value of the houses inside each neighborhood's boundary (Michigan assesses at half of market value), from the Oakland County parcel roll.
  4. Neighborhoods with fewer than 5 homes are left out. Police here publish town totals, not each incident's location, so nothing here ranks safety; each town's crime rate page has its numbers.
