How this table is built

Median ASKING price of residential sale listings that came to market in the month, from portal listings. Asking, not achieved.
Each place's 12-month figure is the monthly medians weighted by their sample; a place with fewer than 30 listings over the year is not ranked.
measured: a sample of at least three times the floor; indicative: at least the floor.
Ties share a rank and order by sample.
Twelve months for every place; no monthly point is ranked.
No monthly point is ranked: a postcode district records a handful of sales a month, and a month-on-month change there is noise.

How this table is built

Median ASKING price of residential sale listings that came to market in the month, from portal listings. Asking, not achieved.

Each place's 12-month figure is the monthly medians weighted by their sample; a place with fewer than 30 listings over the year is not ranked.

measured: a sample of at least three times the floor; indicative: at least the floor.

Ties share a rank and order by sample.

Twelve months for every place; no monthly point is ranked.

No monthly point is ranked: a postcode district records a handful of sales a month, and a month-on-month change there is noise.
