On Self-Appraisal (How To Become Great)

80% of my null reads are town.

That seems about right. Most setups have around 80% of

players

as town. So if you have no information about a player (or think it all cancels out), they'll be about 80% likely to be town.

The easiest and most reliable way to identify power roles is if both of these are true: a) the player claims they're a power role, b) the setup doesn't make sense balance-wise unless they're a power role. As a bonus, this often lets you figure out their alignment too.

This sounds trivial, but I'm still surprised how often people get just so sure that someone else is scum that they continue to consider them scum even when setup balance evidence points in the opposite direction.
