How the scorecard works

Rating is the live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated the business. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 5.0 from more than 150 reviews and a 4.9 from more than 1,000 are not read the same way. Recency reflects how recently customers still leave reviews.
