A dash is not a zero. A median needs 30 priced listings behind it and a yield needs 30 on each side; 5 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 Chroy Changvar is actually like
Chroy Changvar district is located in the north-east of Phnom Penh, Cambodia’s bustling capital city, at the confluence of the Mekong River and Tonle Sap River. Chroy Changvar is the name of both the district and the peninsula it encompasses.
The district is another rapidly developing area of the city and has seen a number of large hotels, residential developments, restaurants and other investment projects transform the formerly quiet area on the outskirts of the city. It is also now close to a number of key tourist and leisure activities in the city.
Over the past decade, Chroy Changvar has developed at a rate much faster than other districts in Phnom Penh, as it had large plots of empty land which have been snapped up to take advantage of the city’s construction boom.
The peninsula formed by the Mekong and Tonle Sap rivers, as well as Koh Dach (Silk Island) also offer pristine river views and city views of Phnom Penh from Chroy Changvar. It is not as much a clustered city sprawl like the CBD (Central Business District) of Phnom Penh.
Ideally located on National Highway 6A, which runs through Chroy Changvar, it offers a direct route to the key northern provinces of Siem Reap, Kampong Thom, and Kampong Cham.
With the correct urban planning and ongoing investment, Chroy Changvar has the potential to be an economic powerhouse.

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.
