at the edge of what the model learnt from, so the range is widenedThe median of all sales here, whatever was sold.
This commune is not in the register the model learnt from, so the figure is worked out from communes like it and there is nothing here to check it against. The buying figure is fitted on one canton's sales and is a rougher guess than the rent above.

Each theme is a mean of the rows under it, and each row a mean of its own figures, placed against every Swiss commune. Figures with no better and worse end are left out, and rent is modelled rather than measured — it is above, not in here.
