  • Each month shows what places asked on the days in its Read column; a month already past was read before its nights, so months read at different times are compared as read.

A month's figure is the median of its nightly medians, and a night's the median asking price for one night. A month is listed once it has at least 15 measured nights, each with at least 30 places showing a price.
