A free map that scores every Goodwill near you by the wealth of the surrounding neighborhood
Premise is simple: thrift stores in wealthier areas usually get nicer donations. This ranks the Goodwills around you 0-100 on that basis so you know which one is worth the trip.
It uses public Census data (home value, income, education, rent for the tracts around each store) and pulls locations from OpenStreetMap. Around 3,000 stores covered. You can search any address, see a score breakdown for each store, and filter by distance.
Free, no signup, no ads.
Fair warning, it's a rough heuristic, not a guarantee. A high-scoring store can still be cleaned out on any given day. But it's been a decent way to stop wasting drives on the nearest one out of laziness.
