How to read the chart
Each point represents the Zillow Home Value Index for Yuma: a typical home's value in the middle third of the market, adjusted for smoothing and seasons, measured in that month's dollars. On the slider, the hollow dot identifies the selected month, while the terracotta dot shows the latest month. These figures ignore inflation, and an index describes the typical home, not any one house: work out a single home's worth from its own sale price using the card above or the home appreciation calculator.
