How this ranking is calculated
Each town is ranked against the others on every measure below — its position, not its raw number, so one unusual town cannot distort the scale. Those positions are then combined using these weights:
- 35% Schools per 10,000 residents
- 30% Parks per 10,000 residents
- 20% Reported serious crime per 10,000 residents
- 15% Median rent
A town missing a measure counts as middle of the pack on it, neither penalized nor lifted by the gap, and shows — in that column. A figure marked ± has a wide margin of error: the sample is small, so read it as approximate.
Venue and amenity counts come from a public map that volunteers keep, so rural towns can be under-represented next to the San Juan metro. Where fewer than 3 places of a kind are on the map, the rate shows — and the town is ranked on its other measures.
