A median home value of $509,700 corresponds to owners who maintain appearance. That is above most of the markets we cover (78th percentile of 401 markets). The typical market we cover sits at $369,200. Across the 2 other South Carolina markets we cover the average is $375,900, so Charleston sits above the state pattern.

The typical market we cover sits at $73,472. Across the 2 other South Carolina markets we cover the average is $63,501, so Charleston sits above the state pattern.
