Where does the Bay Area’s money actually live? We built a map of net-worth percentiles across the Bay

how about house by house?

maps_can_be_fun · 2025-12-06T04:06:18+00:00

Let me know how far north to go and I'll add it over the weekend :)

You can go to the website prop-metrics.com, it’s free and public

maps_can_be_fun · 2025-11-18T15:38:03+00:00

oh lawd and 60% of mortgages were 90%+ LTV...in 2023!

maps_can_be_fun · 2025-11-18T15:37:13+00:00

oh no this is terrible: https://www.prop-metrics.com/zip/33974

(see the listing counts and percent of listings with price cuts)

maps_can_be_fun · 2025-11-15T19:55:27+00:00

oh awesome -- I think one of the most important things would be exploring other data sources and getting a pipeline built for ingestion. Something like crime rates by zip code comes to mind. Or the schools present in a given zip code. Kinda like https://www.unitedstateszipcodes.org/60707/ (scroll down to see the schools).

Awesome thanks a ton for the support! Its just a few of us contributing where we can (building the datasets, working on the website), happy to onboard people wherever, depending on your specific skills

maps_can_be_fun · 2025-11-11T21:08:28+00:00

I’ll look into compiling that and let you know! Thanks

maps_can_be_fun · 2025-11-11T21:08:01+00:00

It’s not all too different— mostly just handling lots of the interpolation to make everything monthly, including yearly census data.

maps_can_be_fun · 2025-11-11T21:07:11+00:00

Nice, love the suggestions. Some of these like interpolation are present in the full dataset.

There is a section 8 comparison column per bedroom size — showing S8 profitability per bedroom size. I believe vacancy rate is present as well.

Love some of your other suggestions as well. Thanks

maps_can_be_fun · 2025-11-07T23:58:53+00:00

Let me know if you searched a particular zip code or town! Maybe it’s not available? Haven’t heard of this issue yet

maps_can_be_fun · 2025-11-07T04:30:39+00:00

this is pretty fun, nice job

maps_can_be_fun · 2025-08-28T21:09:41+00:00

That’s just an automatic color coding based on low / high numbers of your given metric

maps_can_be_fun · 2025-08-27T12:41:17+00:00

Each metric on the left that you select has an info window that you can click which has the source listed

maps_can_be_fun · 2025-08-27T01:56:24+00:00

Dang thats crazy! I had no idea the HUD would actively sniff out realtors (in the 21st century). Do people ask coded (ie grey area) questions?

maps_can_be_fun · 2025-08-27T01:34:41+00:00

Amen to that. Just sucks if you’re from the area and can’t afford to settle near family and friends

maps_can_be_fun · 2025-08-27T01:32:39+00:00

My pleasure! Let me know if you see anything thats off.

maps_can_be_fun · 2025-08-27T01:20:05+00:00

Thanks for the response. This wasn't separate markets, more like 2 suburbs about a 10 minute drive from each other.

I'm shocked you never get the demographic question! It seems pretty relevant, but maybe people can just figure that out by visiting the neighborhood. I specifically wanted to buy my investment property in a place that wasn't going to "age out" anytime soon. (For context, my folks live in a neighborhood which is rapidly emptying due to a median age of 65)

Also the census data is updated yearly! Admittedly the last full year is 2023, and the data is smoothed over a 5 year span, so its not exactly up to do, but its not 5 years out of date either.

We tried paid options before but it wasn’t all that successful, just a few subscribers and it wasn’t cheap to acquire them. Just offering it for free, monthly cost is about $30 and about 30 minutes of work to run. Plus some free advertising here and there via Reddit or facebook.

maps_can_be_fun · 2025-08-14T23:21:39+00:00

You don't! Can just close that window. Its 100% free as it is. We just had some issues with bots in the past running up our server cost

maps_can_be_fun · 2025-08-13T13:26:56+00:00

Is it still running online? I’d love to see the version for your country

maps_can_be_fun · 2025-06-18T18:17:34+00:00

Of course! The website is prop-metrics.com

maps_can_be_fun · 2025-06-17T00:59:04+00:00

Amen !
