How it works

Comparison URLs use sorted base slugs (for example /compare/fort-liberty-vs-joint-base-lewis-mcchord) so the same set of bases always resolves to one canonical page.

Climate and hazard rows use NOAA normals and community-level risk references. Housing, commute, schools, and labor-market rows will fill in as verified public datasets are added.
