These figures are calculated live from the 110 listings currently posted on ShortRent, so they track the real market rather than a static estimate. "Typical" is the median price of live listings, which ignores one-off luxury outliers; the range shows the cheapest and most expensive live listing in each category. Figures update as listers post and remove listings.

How are these rent prices calculated?
Every figure is computed live from the listings currently posted on ShortRent — not an estimate. "Typical" is the median price, so a single luxury listing doesn't distort it, and the range is the cheapest and most expensive live listing in that category.
How often are the prices updated?
Continuously. The page reads the live inventory each time it loads, so prices move as listers add and remove listings.
