On this page, used in the Advanced Search only, you will choose the relative importance of each factor, and, if necessary, change the selected algorithm for a factor. The three algorithm types are As High As Possible, meaning that a high value is good (e.g. School Scores), As Low As Possible (e.g. Crime Index), and Range meaning that there is a preferred range for the factor (e.g. Population Median Age). The weights should be positive numbers. If they don’t add up to 100, we will adjust them proportionally, so that the weights represent percentages.
