Sources, dates & how we calculate estimates

Nearby places and photos come from an approved snapshot. Viewing this page does not call Google Places. A controlled refresh can still search within 5 km of the center. Recreation combines park, lake, trail and club searches, removes duplicates and keeps results within 5 miles. Restaurant ranking balances star ratings with review counts; fast-food, convenience stores and places marked as not offering dine-in are excluded.

Housing mix uses residential property records, including homes that are not for sale. Market prices use the most recent recorded qualifying sale per property within 2025-10-15 to 2026-10-15. Transfers identified as non-market transactions and records without a positive sale amount are excluded. Medians appear with at least 10 sales; price per square foot also requires a recorded home size. Property classifications and neighborhood definitions may differ from local usage. These are dated snapshots, not a complete transaction history or live inventory feed.

School grades are FastExpert estimates based on the mean available ratings for unique public schools found across 4 Hamilton Heights property samples: A = 8–10, B = 6–under 8, C = 4–under 6, D = 2–under 4, F = 1–under 2. Unrated schools are excluded. Grades do not confirm attendance eligibility.

New York demographics come from the existing FastExpert city-data source. The city’s source year was not supplied. Top agents use FastExpert’s existing New York ranking; a Hamilton Heights-specific ranking is not available yet.
