Deterministic aggregate of 1 researched property in this ZIP (latest reading each) — each property weighs one; per point, properties lacking the value are excluded. Property-level records (taxes, scores, permits) never roll individually.
No county-record distress flags across 1 researched property on the ARED base layer. Key-figure check: median price corroborated by the published ten-year series (2025) (within 12.5%). Coherence hold-out: this pass's median price ($2,088,000) sat outside the 0.25–4× band around Travis County's retained level and was not stored. Validation: the flagged $2,088,000 failed independent re-validation and was removed (no prior-cycle value to revert to); the case is under review in the Command Center.
