A real, disclosed spread in level and direction

One source cited an average home value of $162,870 (up 3.8% over the past year), while a separate source cited a lower median sale price of $174,000 (down 11% year-over-year) -- a genuine divergence this record does not resolve to one figure (base record).

A plausible small-market explanation

This unusual divergence plausibly reflects a thin, volatile small-market sales sample rather than a single clear trend -- a real, honest caveat for any small city's month-to-month sale-price data (base record).

Genuinely affordable relative to national benchmarks

Both cited figures run well below the roughly $408,776 national median home value, keeping Broken Bow genuinely affordable by national standards regardless of which local figure proves more representative.
