Regional vs. National Housing Price Comparison Report 2
Introduction
Purpose: The goal of this analysis is to assess whether attributes of the houses listed in the
Pacific region differ significantly from the national market. The main questions to be

footage for homes in the national market?
3. What is the range of values for the 95% confidence interval of square footage for homes

the average housing prices in the Pacific region and the second for the average square
footage of the home listings in the Pacific region.
Sample: A sample of observations was selected from the Pacific region through the use of a
simple random sample. Current listings within a database were assigned arbitrary numbers

order of the number assigned by the random number generator. Specifically, the

listings in the Pacific region are significantly more expensive than those of the national
