Each figure is that type's 12-month rolling median of what actually sold — not a same-home price. We don't publish a single all-types "typical home" number at the district level: when the sales mix shifts (say, more apartments sell one year than the last), a blended median moves even though no home changed value. A true same-home index (the MLS® Home Price Index) isn't published below the city level — for that read, see the Edmonton Market Report.

Buyer's or seller's territory?
Absorption is the share of homes for sale that actually sell in a month — the clearest single read on who holds the leverage. Across all home types combined, this district runs at 23% , which grades as buyer's market on the Edmonton consumer gauge — against 28% for the city as a whole .
The verdict above uses one yardstick (the consumer gauge). Here's the same district against every published reference band — CREA's and the Bank of Canada's — so you can apply your own judgment:
The price trend, past two years
One line per home type — solid lines have a solid sample; dashed lines are small samples, so read those loosely. Each point is the trailing-12-month rolling median at that month — smoothed on purpose, so one unusual month can't fake a trend.
What's typical, by home type
Each stat is its own median across that type's sales here in the past year — not one specific home.
Detached
Semi-detached
Row / townhouse
Apartment condo
"Finished basement" and "has a suite" are the share of that type's sales with one; they're not shown for apartment condos.
By home type
| Type | Typical price (12 mo) | Vs a year ago | Absorption | Market | Sales |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detachedsolid sample | $599,000 | −0.2% | 22% | buyer's | 971 |
| Semi-detachedsolid sample | $430,000 | −4.4% | 37% | balanced | 323 |

| Apartment Condominiumsolid sample | $208,000 | −1.0% | 19% | buyer's | 351 |
Types are grouped by built form, not title: "Semi-detached" is half duplexes; "Row/Townhouse" covers townhouses and other attached homes whether condo-titled or freehold. Types with fewer than 8 sales in the year aren't shown on their own — they're still counted in the all-types totals above.
Based on 2,018 sales over the past 12 months — plenty to trust the numbers above.
How to tell if an area favours buyers or sellers (30 seconds)
The workhorse number is absorption — the share of the homes for sale that actually sell in a month (sales ÷ active listings). Under ~30% is a buyer's market, ~30–50% is balanced, over ~50% is a seller's market (the Edmonton consumer gauge). The lower it runs, the more leverage buyers have.
Around it: months of inventory is the same idea flipped (how long today's listings would take to sell at today's pace), days to sell is how long a typical home sat before selling, and sale-to-list is what sellers actually got versus asking (~98% means homes sell about 2% under ask). Every area is shown against the city — and neighbourhoods against their district too — so you can see at a glance whether it runs hotter or cooler than the market around it.
Sample sizes matter down here. 20+ sales in a year is a solid sample; 8–19 is shown as a hint (small sample); below 8, an area doesn't get its own numbers — check its district instead. Prices are 12-month rolling medians of what actually sold, compared to the same window a year earlier.
