The territory
These are the roads. I drive them in February.
Four counties, drawn to scale. Every community links to the practical facts of living there — the school district, the library, the nearest hospital and grocery, where to ski, and how fast I can be at the door.

Nine towns, two public signals.
Typical home value and its change over the past year, from Zillow’s research index. Search interest over the past 90 days, indexed to Hudson, from Google Trends. Aggregate public data only — no listings — refreshed by hand each month.
