Right now the Brookfield location has the highest Goods Score (51 out of 100). The score reflects how affluent the surrounding neighborhoods are, which is a strong proxy for donation quality, and it refreshes as Census and store data update.
Each store gets a 0 to 100 Goods Score built from four U.S. Census measures of the area within about three miles: median home value, household income, share of college graduates, and median rent. Stores with wealthier surrounding neighborhoods score higher.
Thriftly tracks 15 Goodwill stores within 15 miles of Milwaukee, using OpenStreetMap data. A store won't show up if it isn't tagged in OpenStreetMap, so coverage can be incomplete.
