How to read this chart
Each point represents the Zillow Home Value Index for Idaho Falls, showing the smoothed and seasonally adjusted value of a typical home in the market’s middle third, measured in that month’s dollars. The hollow dot points to the month set on the slider, while the terracotta dot shows the latest month. No inflation adjustment is applied to these figures, and an index tracks the typical home rather than one specific house: use the card above or the home appreciation calculator to work out what a single home is worth from its own sale price.
