*Data points were aggregated to the Census tract level. For the Mill District, which falls across two different Census tracts, numbers were averaged or totaled. **Redfin collects home sales data for the Past 3 Years and Past Year time frames, and may not capture all home sales in a given year. ***Given the lack of uniform sources to measure activity of neighborhood organizations, there may be unreferenced organizations that are also active.
