How matching works

We compare your city to North Texas cities on city size, density, household income, college grads, families with kids, median age, homeownership and commute time. Cost of living is left out on purpose, so a match shows you what life costs here, not what you already pay. The Realust Score is separate: it rates each city on schools, safety, prosperity and more.
