# SkaldMaps

> SkaldMaps is a ZIP, county, and tract map and rating engine for comparing places with housing, affordability, access, commute, schools, weather, voting, and location data.

SkaldMaps helps people explore, filter, compare, and rank U.S. ZIP codes, counties, and census tracts state by state. Users choose their own criteria and weights; the product is designed for research, relocation comparison, market screening, and data-backed map exploration.

## Key Notes
- Most workflows are state-scoped. Pro and Expert plans support all 50 states.
- Rating scores are user-configured and should be interpreted as decision support, not as universal rankings.
- Weather, Schools, and Voting ZIP estimates can include beta caveats where data is estimated, sparse, or coverage-dependent.
- API endpoints are application surfaces, not primary public documentation.
