The headline median covers every property type together, so the mix matters — a suburb with many rooms or studios shows a lower overall median than its houses alone.

|---|---|---|---|
| House | $630 | 48 | 59% |
| Room | $500 | 30 | 37% |
Read this median carefully. Roughly 37% of new tenancies in Wiri are single rooms or boarding-house places, which cost far less than a whole property. That pulls the headline median down, and a house here typically rents for $630.
