Each dot is a city with scored ZIPs; larger dots hold more ZIPs. Up is trailing-year price change (Zillow ZHVI, city average, shown to ±5%); right is the buyer/seller gauge (HavenScore, city average, shown to ±60). Axes follow this state’s own spread. Pressure tends to turn before prices do, which is what Cooling and Firming name.
