Each measure is ranked against US cities and towns with 250,000 or more residents (91 in all), flipped where lower is better. Measures average into five categories, the categories average into one composite, and the composite is ranked against the same peers: A is the top 20%, then B, C, D, and F is the bottom 20%. "Thriving peers" is the level at the top-20% line. At least 3 of 5 categories are required. Business counts and Postal Service vacancy use Sacramento County, California, because neither is published for cities.
