What one row means

Every published score is the projected chance that a business of that type lasts two or more years at that place, as a percentage. It is never the model's raw output. This ranking carries one row per business type and metro. Its score is the projected chance of lasting two or more years, averaged across the price points StreetSpring scores separately in the tool (most types have 5). The 146 business types here are base types; the tool offers 500+ business types, counting each type at each of its price points.

StreetSpring scores 500+ business types: 153 base business types, most of them at 5 price points, which is 569 type-and-price combinations you can choose in the tool.

How to read this dataset

The file has 37 columns and 3,504 rows. Lines that begin with # are comments (citation, license, these recipes) and should be skipped when parsing. The same dictionary is in the README beside the files; changes between versions are in the changelog.

Which city is best for a given business?

Filter business_subtype to the type, sort by city_rank_for_business_subtype ascending. The ranking is on p90_survivability_score_for_business_subtype_in_city, the chance of lasting two or more years at a good address; the avg column is the typical address.

How wide is the gap between the best and worst city?

For one business_subtype, subtract the lowest avg score among the ranked metros from the highest. In this file that gap runs from 8.0 to 19.7 points across the 146 business types, with a median of 12.4. Inside one metro, the gap between the best and worst ranked neighborhood for one business type has a median of 24.3 points, so use the metro file for the real decision.

Where inside the best city should I look?

Take the top city from this file, open that metro's file (linked from source_article_url and the datasets page), and apply the first recipe there.

Which metro is strongest overall?

Keep one row per city and sort by city_overall_rank ascending. city_overall_score is the mean good-address score across the business types every metro carries; city_overall_avg_score is the typical address.
