The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.

Sector HD8 9 Kirklees Typical price each year, detached houses. A gap is a year with too few sales.
