Weighted Values paragraph

The variations in the two weighted value maps provide the home buyer with some advantages and disadvantages when viewing each map representation. When the Doctor and Professor utilize the equally weighted search criteria map, they will have the advantage of viewing blocks that meet all three objectives first. The disadvantage to this view, however, is that it might inadvertently exclude an ideal search area due to a low rank in one area. The Second weighted value map places a greater importance on the distance to Phoenix College and Chandler Regional Hospital. The advantage of this is the map accentuates the blocks between the two work sites and provides extra weight to those blocks in between with median home value and population age. The disadvantage, however, is a block on the South East side of Chandler Hospital might reflect an optimal choice as equally as the North West side of Phoenix College. This however would mean create block that might have great driving times for one individual but not the spouse, meeting only half the distance criteria and minimally the age and house values.
