A real, wide spread across sources

Zillow's algorithm-based average home value was $79,586 (+5.2% YoY as of June 2026); a separately cited figure put the median home price at $160,058; a third source cited a citywide median of $92,700, described as 67% below the national average of $281,900. All three are disclosed rather than reconciled.
