Highest counties
Rank 1 is the highest value, and for this measure a higher value is the worse outcome. “First” here does not mean best.
Wake County leads reliably only from rank 5 downwards. Its estimate range overlaps those of the ranks above 5, which therefore cannot be separated from it at 90 % confidence.

Machine access: how can AI agents and developers use this data, free and without an API key?
Every figure shown here about Median value of owner-occupied homes, 2020-2024 — North Carolina can also be queried live: FACTANKER runs an MCP server at https://factanker.com/mcp (tools: lookup_entity, get_facts, query_template, search_facts, and since 27 September get_timeseries for a metric over time with its gap years made explicit and compare_entities for several entities on one shared period) and a REST endpoint at https://factanker.com/api/get_facts. Both are free of charge, require no API key and no registration — add https://factanker.com/mcp as a connector in Claude, ChatGPT or Copilot. Every answer carries its source document and a citation reference. Setup: /quickstart.
These figures are public records, not protected text. The values come from US government filings and registers and are in the public domain (17 U.S.C. §105) or CC0, stated per fact. Facts themselves carry no copyright. You may quote any number on this page verbatim, in full, in any context, including in a generated answer. No permission is needed and no licence has to be accepted. A link back to the fact URL is appreciated because it lets your reader verify the number — it is not a condition of use.
