San Jose includes all of Santa Clara County which includes Palo Alto on the northern end...from there heading south Mountain View, Sunnyvale, Santa Clara, Cupertino, Campbell, Los Gatos... all its sorta dense tech-wealthy suburbs.

So yeah, definitely 1.4M isn't too far off while SJ itself is somewhat cheaper but also has many expensive parts. SJ is roughly half the county population.

You should see Jackson Hole, WY. Expensive real estate, but for different reasons: https://www.zillow.com/jackson-wy/

I'm laughing that you brought up Jackson. I go there every spring and yes it's expensive but because it's a small tourist ski town. Not really a comparable issue.

Yep - that's why I said for different reasons. :tup:

Average is not median. Most homes are not 1.4mill but a bunch of houses in San Jose are several million and it brings the average up.

Median = mid point of a data range. Mode = most commonly occuring data point. Average = mean = all the data points added up then divided by the # of data points.

In housing prices, the median is probably the most relevant figure as half the homes are above that price and half below

I dont know how they came up with this data but I find it VERY hard to believe, there is no way encanto built more apartments than downtown between 2017 and 2021

Encanto Village is pretty much all of Midtown between I-17 to 51 (https://www.google.com/maps/place/En...4d-112.0774451).

I could possibly see the numbers, but not by very much. :shrug:

Guys, all those apartments up and down Central, up and down the 7s, and up and down 16th are all in Encanto Village. They don't mean the little slice of Phoenix between 7th and 19th and Thomas and McDowell.

There has not been that many apartment buildings completed in Encanto, Broadstone, Centra, and Alta Midtown are the only ones I can think of delivered within the Encanto boundaries in that time.

Yeah, Encanto is much bigger than Central City (which is pretty much all of downtown and little else) by a long shot.

Think harder.

Muse
Greenleaf
Astor
Parc Midtown
Novel Midtown
The Thomas
The Curve
Urbana on 12th

...those are just the big ones already delivered in the "Encanto Village"...many more on the way.

Why are you saying "guys"? I stated how big Encanto Village is with a map even included! :haha:

I don't know, in case someone else was also wrong. :shrug: :cheers::haha:

There also a ton of smaller infill projects being built all over the place throughout encanto. I live in the midtown area and there are probably 100 units across 7 or 8 multifamily projects on smaller lots under construction within a few blocks of me.

Where? the only ones I can think of are the towns on Osborn and 15th ave

I saw a new dumpster and some portable toilets set up in Central Station, and I noticed most of the wrapping on the fence was taken down (not all of it though). There were also two men walking and surveying the site, but I couldn't see if they were from Valley Metro or not.

Medistar has updated their website to say Central Station is scheduled to break ground "Q4 2021", it was previously stuck at "early 2021":

Could it finally be happening?

On Friday, I got my haircut from Eddie the Barber, whose shop is just half a block south of the site, and he said he heard "next two weeks" for construction to start.

Eddie, the man, the myth, the legend!!!!! :)
