A real, disclosed price spread

Redfin's May 2026 median sale price ran approximately $1,348,193 (+0.6% YoY); a separate Homes.com figure cited $1,435,000 (+12% YoY); a 2024 median property value (Data USA/ACS-derived) ran approximately $1.26 million -- a real spread across sources this record discloses honestly rather than resolving to one figure.

A high, settled homeownership rate

Hingham's homeownership rate runs approximately 77.3% -- genuinely high, consistent with Hingham's identity as a settled, affluent, owner-occupied harbor town rather than a high-turnover rental market.

Hingham's housing market reflects Massachusetts's real, statewide, currently-acknowledged housing shortage -- see this project's Massachusetts state hub record -- layered onto Hingham's own real, sustained demand from its harbor-town character and ferry-commute access.
