This report uses the median asking price of active listings on Kenya Property Centre last month, for each mix of category, property type, bedrooms, county and town. Where it combines several of these, it averages their medians, weighted by how many listings each has. Using medians, not means, keeps a single unusual price from skewing a group's figure.
