Gould,
Is this info look correct to you for Seattle? I would have expect
substantially more construction and substantially higher costs.
Seattle

a.. 1996: 464 buildings, average cost: $125,800
b.. 1997: 469 buildings, average cost: $146,300
c.. 1998: 530 buildings, average cost: $135,200
d.. 1999: 480 buildings, average cost: $136,900

This was for *all* zip codes in Naples.
I was actually surprised to not see Naples on the list. There are at
least a dozen zip codes for the "Naples" mailing address. Was there a
minimum population requirement used in the rankings? If you could look
up the "34102" zip code only, the median home price would be higher than
the Atherton, CA median home price.
You've listed 'average' cost, the list was 'median' There is a big
difference.
Also, I would hazard a guess that in many of those zip code few houses
change hands and or hvae low denisty of housing. If you only had 5
houses sell, at 2.1mil, 2.1 mil, 2.0 mil and 100k and 100k, the median
would be not reflect the true nature of the market .
Waterfront property does that. YOu can have a house selling for
$300k...and the exact same one right across the street, but on direct-Gulf
access could sell for $1.3 million.
Same around here.......a 1200 s.f. ranch on a canal will run 350-400k, and
half that or less without .
