Methodology<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

We looked at the median home close price by zip code during March, 2024 and compared that to the median home close price over the prior three years to determine the percent growth. We then ranked the zip codes, within each state, to determine which neighborhood\/city had the highest percent change. In this case, with prices trending down in San Francisco, we looked at the neighborhoods with the greatest negative change. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
