Why this market does or does not qualify
Overall City Market Score rank #3,062 of 4,812. The standardized Buy & Hold screen cannot produce a complete result for this city. Why rank and cash flow can disagree
Supported strengths
Stability 72/100 and Growth 60/100.
Measured weakness
Cash Flow is the weakest category at 19/100.
Missing screen inputs: investor-entry price estimate. Primary evidenced risk: expense-adjusted yield is the weakest measured factor (2nd national percentile).
Data caveat: no missing input is treated as a zero cost. Bring an actual property’s price, rent, taxes, condition, and insurance quote to the calculator.
Why this grade
Overall 42.5 is a weighted geometric mean of the three category scores. Because they are multiplied rather than averaged, their distances from a perfect 100 combine as an exact identity, and each category's share of that distance is the arithmetic below, not an estimate. Cash Flow carries 68% of it, which is what makes it the binding constraint on this grade.
Cash Flow · 35% weight
19.2 / 100
68% of the shortfall
Growth · 35% weight
60.1 / 100
21% of the shortfall
Stability · 30% weight
71.8 / 100
12% of the shortfall
Inside Cash Flow, the shortfall splits over the factors the model scored here, exactly, in proportion to their published weights. The largest component is expense-adjusted yield (weight 22 of the category's 35, 2nd national percentile, 76% of the category's own shortfall); next is price to income (weight 13 of the category's 35, 48th national percentile, 24% of the category's own shortfall).
What this is not. It is not a claim that a different value on any one factor would produce a different score or a different grade. Every factor is scored as a national percentile and the grade is a percentile cut against the other 4,812 ranked markets, so this market's position moves only relative to all of them, never on its own. No factor was dropped for this market. 5 of the 13 factors were imputed (rent growth, home-value growth, violent crime, property crime, rental vacancy): the model had no city input of the kind it scores, so it used a reference median instead of a measurement (the same county, or the same state and population band; a national median for a yield cost input), and the factor table marks each one as a fallback.
How Pelham Manor ranks nationally
Each row places Pelham Manor among all 4,812 ranked U.S. markets: the marker is this city, the centre tick is the national median, and the bar runs from one to the other. Further right is better for an investor; inverted measures (crime, vacancy, price-to-income) are already flipped.

Strong seller leverage (16th percentile among 6,196 cities with Redfin coverage)
Equal-weight composite of three Redfin signals’ national percentiles (days on market 27, months of supply 1.4, sale-to-list 104.9%), direction-adjusted so a higher percentile always means more room for a buyer to negotiate. This is a cross-sectional snapshot against every other tracked city today, not a seasonal or historical baseline for this specific city (no multi-year time series is committed for this data). Not a prediction of what any specific seller will accept. Source: Redfin Data Center. See how this is calculated.

ZIP markets in Pelham Manor
1 Census ZIP Code (ZCTAs) officially overlap Pelham Manor by land area · 1 data-eligible for subscores. Overlap is Census land-area share, not a population or address share. Each ZIP Code's overall Rental Investor ZIP Score, grade and canonical national rank are shown below (the two component signals, affordability and rental market, are separate percentiles). There is no city-scoped ZIP rank: city overlap isn't a ranking universe, so only the national rank is shown. These ZIP rankings sit in the ZIP universe only, never mixed with, and not directly comparable to, Pelham Manor's city ranking. Vintage: the Key metric column below is Census ACS 2020–2024 (5-year), the same survey release as the figures used above for Pelham Manor itself; a city and a ZIP Code are different geographies, so the same measure can still show a different number at each level.

The honest read
Pelham Manor scores 43/100 overall (grade D): 19 for Cash Flow, 60 for Growth, and 72 for Stability, each a 0–100 score built from the factors in that category. The scenario above shows what a representative investor-entry purchase pencils out to at today's rates. Everything we can measure is in the table below, with its source.
Every factor, shown
The Overall score blends three category scores built from thirteen factors: Cash Flow (35%), Growth (35%), and Stability (30%). The tag on each percentile names the category a scored factor feeds; untagged rows are context, not scored. Each band chip restates that row's percentile in words. Every value carries its source and as-of date; a fallback source or imputed value is marked fallback. How the score works.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Expense-adjusted yield fallback open-ended input | 0.1% | Bottom 10%2nd percentile · Cash Flow | Census ACS · ACS 5-yr 2020-2024 | Annual rent divided by price, net of a modeled vacancy, tax, capex, and management allowance: the core of the Cash Flow category and what the score is actually computed from. The unadjusted gross yield is shown elsewhere on this page. The model scored this figure at the Census code for the median real-estate tax only as $10,000 or more. The true figure is at most what the published boundary gives. |
| Price to income fallback open-ended input | 4.4x | Below median48th percentile · Cash Flow | Census ACS · ACS 5-yr 2020-2024 | Home price over local median income. Lower is cheaper relative to what people earn. Part of the Cash Flow category. The model scored this figure at the Census code for the median household income only as $250,000 or more. The true figure is at most what the published boundary gives. |
| Population growth | -0.1%/yr | Below median27th percentile · Growth | Census PEP · Census PEP 2020→2025 (vintage 2025) + Census PEP 2015→2025 (vintages 2019+2025) | Census population trend for the place, capped at 4.5%/yr before scoring (diminishing returns above that rate): the heaviest factor in the Growth category. |

A Growth-category factor. |
| Income growth open-ended input | 7.4%/yr | Top quartile85th percentile · Growth | Census ACS · ACS 5-yr 2020-2024 | Local median-income trend. A Growth-category factor. The model scored this figure at the Census code for the median household income (ACS 2020–2024) only as $250,000 or more. The true figure is at least what the published boundary gives. |
| Rent growth fallback | 5.7%/yr | Top 10%93rd percentile · Growth | Model cohort median (eligible county or state/population cohort); no city-specific observation. Published 2026-10-06 | A 40/60 blend of 3-year and 10-year rent trend (the model's own weighting). A Growth-category factor. |

Published 2026-10-06 | A 40/60 blend of 3-year and 10-year price trend (the model's own weighting). A small Growth-category factor. |
| Violent crime fallback | 154 /100k/yr | Above median59th percentile · Stability | Model cohort median (eligible county or state/population cohort); no city-specific observation. Published 2026-10-06 | Reported violent crimes per 100,000 residents a year (the FBI's monthly agency rates, times 12). No agency reported this place to the FBI, so the score uses the model cohort median shown (same county, or same state and population band), not a city observation. City-level data cannot resolve within-neighborhood risk. |
| Property crime fallback | 877 /100k/yr | Top quartile76th percentile · Stability | Model cohort median (eligible county or state/population cohort); no city-specific observation. Published 2026-10-06 | Reported property crimes per 100,000 residents a year.

| Unemployment | 3.4% | Top quartile82nd percentile · Stability | BLS LAUS (county) · BLS LAUS county annual 2025 (11-month average) | County unemployment rate. Lower is steadier, a Stability-category factor. |
| Rental vacancy fallback | 2.3% | Top quartile87th percentile · Stability | Model cohort median (eligible county or state/population cohort); no city-specific observation. Published 2026-10-06 | Share of rentals empty. Lower means more pricing power. A Stability-category factor. |
| Property tax rate open-ended input | 0.9% | Above median55th percentile · Stability | Census ACS B25103/B25077 · ACS 5-yr 2020-2024 | Median tax over median value. A direct drag on cash flow, scored in the Stability category as carrying-cost burden. The model scored this figure at the Census code for the median real-estate tax only as $10,000 or more. The true figure is at least what the published boundary gives. |
| Months of supply | 1.4 mo | Top 10%91st percentile · Stability | Redfin Data Center · 2026-05-01 | Listings over sales pace. Under about 4 is a seller market, over 6 a buyer market. A Stability-category factor. |
| Days on market | 27 days | Above median70th percentile | Redfin Data Center · 2026-05-01 | How fast homes sell. Lower means more liquidity and an easier exit. Shown for context, not scored. |
| Sale-to-list ratio | 104.9% | Top 10%96th percentile | Redfin Data Center · 2026-05-01 | Sale price over asking. Above 100% means homes clear over ask. Shown for context, not scored. |

- * Job growth and unemployment are county-level (BLS LAUS, county FIPS 36119); large multi-county cities inherit their dominant county’s figures.
- Yield uses ACS median gross rent and home value (Census survey data, 2020–2024 average) because Zillow does not cover this city - not directly comparable to Zillow-based yields.
- The Census Bureau publishes this city's median household income only as "$250,000 or more" (ACS table B19013): an open-ended range, not an estimate, which the data carries as the code $250,001. Figures built on it are bounds: price to income at most 4.4x; income growth at least 7.4% a year. The City Market Score uses the code as stored, so its price to income and income growth were scored at the code, not at a measured figure.
- The Census Bureau publishes this city's median real-estate tax only as "$10,000 or more" (ACS table B25103): an open-ended range, not an estimate, which the data carries as the code $10,001. Figures built on it are bounds: property tax rate at least 0.91%. The City Market Score uses the code as stored, so its property tax rate was scored at the code, not at a measured figure.
- The Census Bureau publishes this city's median year built only as "1939 or earlier" (ACS table B25035): an open-ended range, not an estimate, which the data carries as the code 1938. This page shows it as "1939 or earlier", and its national percentile only as the range a tie at the code allows.
- Data flag: cashYield: ACS fallback (no Zillow rent+value).
- Data flag: rentGrowth: ACS CAGR fallback. The score does not use a city figure for this factor: it uses the model cohort median shown in the factor table.
- Data flag: appreciation: ACS CAGR fallback. The score does not use a city figure for this factor: it uses the model cohort median shown in the factor table.
- Data flag: rentalVacancy: missing. The score does not use a city figure for this factor: it uses the model cohort median shown in the factor table.
