Housing Values in 2010

The median value of the nation's owned homes was $179,900 in 2010, according to the American Community Survey. This was down from the peak of $197,600 reported to the ACS in 2008. Housing value is self-reported, and the fact that median self-reported value increased through 2008 as home prices fell suggests that owners overestimate the value of their homes.
