What zipradar surfaces at the District of Columbia county level
County governments — not states or the federal government — own four of the most decision-relevant neighborhood-data layers. zipradar federates each from its authoritative public source, refreshed on the cadence each agency publishes.
- Property tax
- District of Columbia county assessors publish parcel-level millage rates and assessed values. zipradar federates the county-by-county tax structure so a buyer can compare effective tax burden across this county. Annual reassessment cadence; check each county for the most recent reassessment year.
- Deed activity
- County recorders log every property transfer. zipradar surfaces aggregated deed activity (count of recent transfers, median sale price ranges) at the ZIP level, never owner names or PII. Daily filings; published with a 1-2 day recorder lag.
- Radon zones
- The EPA Map of Radon Zones classifies every US county into Zone 1 (highest risk), Zone 2 (moderate), or Zone 3 (lowest). The 1993 baseline is overlaid with state-level radon survey data when published. zipradar shows the zone designation for this county.
- Sex offender registry
- County and state registries are linked in real time via the National Sex Offender Public Website (NSOPW). zipradar deep-links to the official registry — never caches personal records — so privacy statutes are honored at the source.
