*Median Price: An actual sale at or immediately adjacent to the midpoint in a price group. In the case of an even number of sales, the median is the highest price in the lower half of that price group. If the total number of sales is an odd amount, the midpoint sale is taken to be the median (i.e. 9 sales, sale no. 5 represents the median).
**Please note:
The Board Totals figures also include: Zone 7-North Island, Zone 9-Out of Board
 Properties, and Zone 10-Islands figures which are not listed separately in this table.
