What Is HomeSnacks?

HomeSnacks was founded to provide insights that “your real estate agent would neglect to mention” by presenting data from presentable sources and utilizing a scientific report called Saturday Night Science to explain the methodology behind the rankings.

How to Determine Which Massachusetts County is the Richest

Their research considers several aspects.

With the help of the American Community Survey data and Zillow for the most recent reporting period of data on average home prices and median income, HomeSnacks ranked each county for each of the criteria from 1 to 14, with one being the richest.

“Saturday Night Science is the standard of research we put into every article on the site,” HomeSafe said. “Because place-based rankings aren’t peer-reviewed, we are trying to achieve a level of accuracy you’d have with friends arguing at a bar…every ranking tries to follow the four Ts.”
