The last decade in Water Crest, briefly

The recorded series starts in 2012 at $118,000. Against the 2023 peak of $350,000, the current median stands at -2%. Annual sales volume here has ranged from 1 to 7 closings a year (10-yr average 3.9). With roughly 3.9 closings a year, Water Crest’s medians move in steps, not curves — a handful of unusual sales can swing a year, which is why the sales count sits next to every figure above.
