Each district's change compares its median sold price in 2016 with 2025, the first and last complete calendar years, from HM Land Registry Price Paid data; England and Wales is measured the same way. A district is only compared when both years have at least 20 sales, and is counted as in line when the gap is within 3 percentage points. A median also moves when the mix of homes sold changes - more new-build flats in a district can move it as much as prices do - so treat single districts with care and the overall pattern with more confidence. 'Typical' is the median of the districts' changes. Contains HM Land Registry data © Crown copyright and database right 2026, licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0.
