Median House Price
Q4 2025Daceyville's house market is moving higher: the median sale price reached $2.04 million in the December 2025 quarter, about 5% above where it sat a year earlier. That said, only five sales settled in the quarter, so the median is a noisy signal — treat it as a direction rather than a level. Zoom out: prices have climbed roughly 66% over the past decade — 5.2% per year on average.
