They did a major overhaul of how they score schools in 2017 and now it's terrible and damaging to society, it essentially tells families to move to areas that are all-white with zero diversity. Let me explain. A very diverse school in a nice town on the West Coast, if students of different races average different scores, then the overall school is PENALIZED assuming incorrectly they are treating students differently. Meanwhile a poor all-white school with lower overall average scores, still gets 9/10 or 10/10 ratings, again because they aren't penalized by this idiot racial-difference penalization. Maybe the site had good intentions but it actually screws over families that chose to live in diverse towns and rewards all-white supremacy. It's terrible and Zillow should decouple immediately!
