How this is calculated
Out of ten. A base of 5.5, then up to 1.6 for junior programming that names a camp, swim team or junior golf and tennis clinics; a point if there is a pool; and 1.2 if the club runs family, junior, young-member, intermediate or legacy categories. It measures what a household with children actually uses, not prestige.
