How Are Median Home Prices Calculated?

Employing the House Price Index growth data from FHFA and integrating it with the latest housing statistics derived from the American Community Survey (2023 ACS estimates), we have computed median home values for 3,110 counties and county-equivalents across the United States. It's important to note that these home values reflect the overall worth of all homes in a given area, rather than focusing solely on home sales data.
