How this list was ranked

Each business that passed the filters was given an adjusted score that blends its average rating with a neutral prior of 4.5 stars weighted as 50 reviews. The formula is (reviews × rating + 50 × 4.5) ÷ (reviews + 50). This keeps a business with a handful of perfect ratings from outranking one with hundreds of consistently strong ratings. Businesses were then listed from highest to lowest score. A business appears in only one category on carlsbad.wiki.

Addresses were checked against the city boundary published by the U.S. Census Bureau (TIGER/Line, Carlsbad city, GEOID 0611194), allowing about 150 meters for map-pin placement.[2] Profiles with no reviews, duplicate profiles and names padded with search phrases were excluded. The full rule is explained on How listings are chosen.
