What the model is seeing
Café is the strongest scored format at 73/100, 11 points above retail at 62/100. The suburb verdict is VERIFY at 68/100.
No factor is in a tight band. Demand is 6/10, rent pressure 3/10, competition 3/10, and seasonality 2/10. The verdict comes from the weighted blend, not from one red flag.
Existing notes name Thuringowa Drive, Riverway Drive, Palmer Street. Those names are not a rent quote, a visitor count, or a growth rate.
The model result is VERIFY. Local evidence is limited, so this screen is not a lease decision.
How to read these scores

Factor Breakdown
Location factors
Demand, rent, competition, seasonality, and tourism — scored and weighted for Australian commercial operators.
Business-Type Scores
How each format performs
Scores use engine-derived weights: cafés weight demand and rent most heavily; restaurants factor tourism; retail factors tourism and demand equally.
Methodology: Scores are engine-derived from five observable inputs (demand strength, rent pressure, competition density, seasonality risk, tourism dependency — each 1–10). These feed into business-type-specific weighted composites via a single scoring engine used across all markets. Scores are relative estimates calibrated across all Townsville suburbs — a score of 80 indicates materially better conditions than 65; it is not a success probability or guarantee.
