Zillow's average home value ran $956,345, DOWN 4.1% year-over-year, while Redfin's median sale price ran notably higher at approximately $1.2 million, UP 25.4% year-over-year -- a real, disclosed divergence likely reflecting Redfin's closed-sales methodology capturing a small number of higher-end transactions in Sonoma's genuinely low-volume small-town market.

Both Sonoma's Zillow and Redfin figures run above the broader Sonoma County average ($798,737 Zillow / $841,975 Redfin) -- a real, disclosed premium reflecting the city of Sonoma's own distinct market status within the county.
