Figures are for the independent City of Alexandria — the jurisdiction that contains Old Town (FIPS 51510). A note on geography, because it trips everyone: Virginia independent cities belong to no county, and "Alexandria, VA" mailing addresses reach well into Fairfax County — Mount Vernon, Fort Hunt, Belle Haven, Kingstowne. Homes in those areas are not in these figures; they are counted in Fairfax County’s own series.
Median listing price, median days on market and active listing count come from Realtor.com residential listings data, published through FRED (Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis); the mortgage rate is Freddie Mac’s Primary Mortgage Market Survey, also via FRED. Series are monthly and typically publish with a few weeks’ lag; this page refreshes automatically as new months post. Listing figures describe homes for sale, not closed sales.
