How the figures work

Figures come from the homes to rent in Merton that were live on 11 November 2026. We use only the listings with a size, read from the floorplan or stated by the agent. Short lets and rooms in shared homes are left out. In the table by number of bedrooms, a home advertised more than once counts once. The middle half is the range between the 25th and the 75th percentile. A figure needs at least 20 listings with a size (10 homes for one bedroom row); below that we say so.
