Use it to shortlist cities where you may have more choice or negotiating room, then open the city and ZIP reports and compare specific homes before making an offer.

Use it for context, then price from your own city, nearby ZIP codes, and comparable homes — the competition closest to your home matters more than the countywide pattern.
