It is impossible to know how median and average value statistics apply to any particular home without a specific comparative market analysis. These analyses were made in good faith with data from sources deemed reliable, but may contain errors and are subject to revision. It is not our intent to convince you of a particular position, but to attempt to provide straightforward data and analysis, so you can make your own informed decisions. Median and average statistics are enormous generalities: There are hundreds of different markets in San Francisco and the Bay Area, each with its own unique dynamics. Median prices and average dollar per square foot values can be and often are affected by other factors besides changes in fair market value. Longer term trends are much more meaningful than short-term.

Bay Area Housing Affordability Improves, November 2019

Per California Association of Realtors Housing Affordability Index (HAI)
Q3 2019 Update,Published November 2019

Bay Area housing affordability percentages ticked up considerably in Q3 2019 as compared to Q3 2018.

Generally stabilizing or slightly declining median home prices, plus increasing median household incomes and dramatically falling interest rates = a jump in year over year housing affordability.

The CA Association of Realtors Housing Affordability Index estimates the percentage of households who can afford to buy a median priced HOUSE with a 20% down-payment, at prevailing fixed 30·year interest rates, with associated housing expenses such at taxes and insurance. Counties contain cities, and cities contain neighborhoods of widely varying values, market conditions and affluence.
