Notice the word median?

Homes are getting larger, sq ft wise, and more features. That is driving the higher end up, the desirable homes for those who can afford them.

If you were to look at the mean instead, you might find that the older housing stock improved in terms of affordabilty, especially as people find work and move up and out of section 8 housing/welfare.

I don't have stats to back this up, I just remember reading somewhere about the use of the median which colored the data.
