Home Value, By Source

A public home-value index (incl. Zillow) puts the typical value at $393,635 as of 2026-05-31. Public closed-sale data separately puts the median sale price at $355,000 as of 2026-05-31, based on 161 homes sold that month. These measure different things (a value index vs. actual closed sales), which is why we show a range rather than picking one — full source list on our data sources page.
