A real, disclosed spread between cited figures

A cited typical home value of $185,837 (up 8.4% year-over-year) runs alongside a separately cited median SALE price of $236,000 as of November 2025 (up an unusually large 155.4% year-over-year) -- a genuinely large divergence this record does not resolve to one figure (base record).

A plausible small-market explanation

This unusually wide spread 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 national median home-value figures cited elsewhere in this project's 2026 dataset, keeping Gothenburg genuinely affordable by national standards.
