A dash is not a zero. A median needs 30 priced listings behind it and a yield needs 30 on each side; 3 of these fall under that on at least one measure, so those figures are withheld rather than printed off a handful of homes.

Living here
What Sen Sok is actually like
Sen Sok district was established in 2009 in the capital of Phnom Penh. The incorporated land was formerly a part of Kandal province but was absorbed into the capital’s expansion. Sen Sok was also created through the merger of three Sangkats; Khmuonh, Phnom Penh Thmei and Tuek Thla which used to be part of Khan Russey Keo.
The area is home to roughly 10% of Phnom Penh’s residents. Sen Sok is a district in the northwest of Phnom Penh’s city centre that is growing and modernising quickly and is a hotbed for development.
Just like neighbouring district Toul Kork, many residents are relocating to Sen Sok to find more affordable land and property. Until recently, the area was mostly residential and industrial. In recent years, however, there have been some high profile commercial projects that seem to be kicking activity into high gear. These include the addition of the AEON Mall Sen Sok, as well as warehouse-size outlets like Global House and Makro Cambodia and huge mixed development projects and boreys.

Straight answers
What these figures are, and what we will not print
Where these figures come from, and where they stop.
Asking, not sold
Every price here is what a seller or landlord advertises on this site today. Cambodia publishes no register of transaction prices, so nobody can honestly print what homes actually sold for.
Why there is no price chart
Our historical figures are not measured consistently enough to compare one year with another, so we would rather show no trend line than a misleading one.
Small samples are withheld
A median needs 30 priced listings behind it, and a yield needs 30 on each side. Below that the figure is a dash. A dash is an admission; a number would be a claim.
Per square metre is computed
Price divided by floor area, every time, over the homes that state one. The per-square-metre figure agents type into the listing form is never used here.
These counts match the search
Every count is what the search results page returns for the same area, because it is the same query.
