MapQuest has developed a new methodology for ranking neighborhoods called a Vibe Score. A Vibe Score is a composite of the following six criteria: walkability, popularity, going out, edginess, burbiness and residentiality. Vibe uses a patented algorithm that utilizes billions of search and social input data points to create real-time rankings.
<a title="georgetown dc real estate" href="https://www.dccondoboutique.com/georgetown/">Georgetown</a> garnered the top ranking DC Vibe Score with a 10, closely followed by <a title="capitol hill dc real estate" href="https://www.dccondoboutique.com/capitol-hill/">Capitol Hill</a> with a 9.8 and <a title="downtown dc and penn quarter real estate" href="https://www.dccondoboutique.com/penn-quarter/">Downtown</a> with a 9.6. These are all very popular destination neighborhoods with great walkability and a significant number of venues to attract lots of visitors. It is interesting that two of the neighborhoods that I expected to high Vibe Scores, Logan Circle and Columbia Heights didn't crack the top ten in the District.
The whole concept of a Vibe Score is most fascinating as it compiling real-time social networking data points to calculate its rankings. I think it is safe to say that applications like this are accelerating the concept of crowd sourcing to mainstream America.<br /><br />Related Links<a href="https://www.dccondoboutique.com/blog//dc-ranked-5th-best-city-for-young-people/" target="_blank">DC Ranked 5th Best City For Young People</a><a href="https://www.dccondoboutique.com/blog//logan-dupont-deliver-for-gen-y-buyers/" target="_blank">Logan, Dupont Deliver for Gen-Y Buyers</a><a href="https://www.dccondoboutique.com/blog//dc-walk-scores/" target="_blank">DC Walk Scores</a>2011-10-27T10:41:07-07:002021-05-10T05:08:40-07:00Mark Washburn
