CBS warns that average sale prices are not a price index. The average also moves when a different mix of homes is sold, for example more apartments or larger houses. For the true price trend, CBS uses its price index (table 85792NED).

What we do not show, and why

  • Number of rooms: there is no free official source by region, so we do not show it.
  • Parking: there is no free official source by region. Cars per household (CBS) appears only as context. It is not a measure of parking space.
  • Overbidding, price per m² and time on market: CBS does not publish these figures by municipality as open data. Sources such as NVM or Kadaster are not free to reuse.
  • Average floor area: CBS counts homes by floor-area class. We show that distribution and the class of the middle home, not an exact average in m².
  • Prices of apartments and houses: this split exists only for the Netherlands as a whole (CBS 85791NED), not for Leiden.
