Where This Comes From
Sources, and what we do not publish
Population, income, home value, ownership, housing age and commute times come from the U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey five-year estimates. New construction comes from the Census Building Permits Survey. Sold and active listing figures are Legacy's own read of the MLS for October 2026 closings, Legacy's read as of early November 2026. Local facts carry their own source link.
We do not publish crime statistics or school ratings. Those figures are reported by agency and district rather than by community, they lag by a year or more, and ranking communities on them is not something a brokerage should be doing. For public safety, the FBI publishes reported offenses by the agency that actually covers each community, and for schools the State of Michigan publishes district data directly. Both are linked below so you can read the primary source yourself.
This page is compiled from public government sources for general information only. Legacy Real Estate Partners does not verify, endorse, rank or interpret this data and makes no representation about the suitability of any community for any person. Every community we serve is presented using the same template and the same sources. We are pledged to the letter and spirit of U.S. policy for the achievement of equal housing opportunity throughout the nation.
