Quick Reference

  • Price Index (0–100): Where a neighborhood falls on the pricing spectrum. Higher = homes selling above comparable properties; lower = a relative discount.
  • Premium / Discount (%): The estimated percentage difference vs. comparable homes elsewhere.
  • Data Depth: How much sales data backs up the score. Deep = 30+ sales; Solid = 15–29 sales; Thin = fewer than 15 sales.
  • Premium-Priced (Index ≥ 80): Sales consistently above comparable homes. Market-Aligned (21–79): In line with comparable homes. Value-Priced (≤ 20): Sales below comparable homes.

The Price Index measures pricing dynamics, not neighborhood quality or desirability. A lower score does not mean a less desirable place to live.
