What a rank means
A rank compares a community with the others in the group; it says nothing about whether a particular home is a fit. Communities at either end of a measure are not better or worse, only different, and the right one depends on your budget, timeline and what you want to own. Numbers like these describe the whole of Fresno, not one street or one home, and real estate decisions are rarely a straight line.
