How the scorecard works

Rating is each business’s live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated it, shown on Google. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.8 from a thousand people carries more weight than a 5.0 from a handful. Recency reflects how recently customers are still leaving reviews.
