PlaceU.S. cities, towns, and unincorporated communities with population ≥ 5,000. Source: U.S. Census ACS 5-year 2023. Townships and towns are included for the 12 strong-MCD states (CT, ME, MA, MI, MN, NH, NJ, NY, PA, RI, VT, WI).
MetroThe Core-Based Statistical Area (CBSA) this place sits in, where one exists. A small number of places in less-populous CBSAs are shown without a metro.
StateU.S. state or the District of Columbia. All tax rates and rules on this row are set by this state's law.
PopulationTotal population. Source: U.S. Census ACS 5-year 2023.
DensityPopulation per square mile of land area (people/mi²). Population from Census ACS 5-year 2023; land area (ALAND_SQMI) from the 2023 Census Gazetteer. Separates walkable density from acreage exurbs.
Jan °FAverage January temperature, °F — the 1991–2020 January mean from NOAA's U.S. Climate Normals, taken from the weather station nearest the place's center. Station-based: most accurate where a station is close, and elevation differences between a place and its station can shift the value by a few degrees.
Jul °FAverage July temperature, °F — the 1991–2020 July mean from NOAA's U.S. Climate Normals, taken from the weather station nearest the place's center. Station-based: most accurate where a station is close, and elevation differences between a place and its station can shift the value by a few degrees.

%AsianShare of residents identifying as Asian alone or in any combination — includes Indian, Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, Filipino, Japanese, etc. (Census variable B02011_001E). Useful as a broader diaspora signal: Indian-American cultural infrastructure typically co-locates with East-Asian community hubs. Source: U.S. Census ACS 5-year 2023.

Red/Blue2024 presidential margin in percentage points (Harris − Trump) at the county level, applied uniformly to every place in the county. Positive = bluer, negative = redder. Within large counties (e.g., Los Angeles, Cook, Travis, Santa Clara), real political variation is wide — the number is most accurate near the county's population center. Source: MIT Election Lab.
Health riskNatural-hazard risk to people, shown as a multiple of the typical (median) U.S. place — 1.0× = typical, 3× = three times as risky, with the worst places ~50×. Underlying measure: FEMA's expected-annual population loss (modeled fatalities + injuries, an injury ≈ 1/10 of a fatality) per resident — a relative, size-independent index, not an observed death rate (it annualizes rare catastrophic events, so it runs above actual mortality). Driven by hazards that hurt people (tsunami, earthquake, heat, tornado, lightning), which differ from what destroys buildings. Measured at the county level and applied to every place in it — accuracy is best near the county's population center. Cell color is the national percentile; hover for the absolute rate and top hazards. Source: FEMA National Risk Index.
Property riskNatural-hazard risk to buildings, shown as a multiple of the typical (median) U.S. place (1.0× = typical). Underlying measure: FEMA's expected-annual building loss per dollar of home value — a size-independent rate, so a small high-hazard county outranks a big metro. Driven by what destroys property (hurricane, tornado, wildfire, flood) — a different map than health risk. Measured at the county level and applied to every place in it. Cell color is the national percentile; hover for the absolute rate ($/yr per $100k of value) and top hazards. Source: FEMA National Risk Index.
HHIMedian household income. Source: U.S. Census ACS 5-year 2023.
Asian HHIMedian household income for households with an Asian-alone householder (Census variable B19013D_001E). Distinguishes places where the Asian community itself is affluent (Saratoga, Short Hills) from places with a working-class Asian population. ACS suppresses this estimate when the Asian-household sample is too small, shown as "—". Source: U.S. Census ACS 5-year 2023.

%OwnerShare of occupied housing units that are owner-occupied (Census variables B25003_002E / B25003_001E). Owner-heavy places skew toward established family suburbs; renter-heavy places skew toward college towns and young-professional urban cores. Source: U.S. Census ACS 5-year 2023.
HomeMedian value of owner-occupied housing units (B25077_001E) — a quick proxy for the cost of buying a typical home in the place. Self-reported by owners; reflects the existing housing stock, not current listing prices, so it lags transaction markets. Source: U.S. Census ACS 5-year 2023.
Estate taxState tax on the Estate at death value, combining true estate taxes (12 states + DC) and inheritance taxes (KY, MD, NE, NJ, PA) into a single column since the dollar impact on heirs is the same regardless of which form the state uses. Assumes the second death of a married couple — surviving spouse already gone, so no marital deduction — and that heirs are lineal descendants (children/grandchildren), who are Class A in every inheritance-tax state (so KY/MD/NE/NJ resolve to $0; only PA charges children, at 4.5%). State law only; the federal estate tax is not included. Reflects 2026 statutes, including Washington's post-July 2026 regime.
Income taxState income tax on the Annual income you entered, accumulated each year over the Years at new place horizon. State-level only — local income taxes (NYC, Maryland counties, OH/KY/IN municipalities, Yonkers, PA local EIT) are not modeled, which understates the true tax for places in those jurisdictions.
CG taxState capital gains tax on the Annual realized capital gains you entered, accumulated each year over the Years at new place horizon. State law only. Washington's 9.9% rate already includes the SB 6346 millionaires' surcharge effective Jan 2028.
Total taxSum of Estate tax + Income tax + Cap gains over your scenario. State law only — see each column's tooltip for limitations.
