Another one for the annals of reporting on how damn expensive this city has become.

Not all D.C. neighborhoods have fared as well post-housing crisis, though.

You need to earn $15,693.93 more than you did four months ago to afford a median-priced home in the D.C. area.

At least $62,809.63 a year.

According to the S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Indices, home prices rose by 7.7 percent from March 2012 to March 2013 in the D.C. area.

April’s Case-Shiller index was released this morning, and D.C. saw the strongest price appreciation in the 20-city metric, jumping 2.4 percent from March to April. In comparison, prices fell in New York by 0.3 percent. The national index was up 0.8 percent, so D.C. was way ahead of the curve.

The National Association of Realtors released their quarterly data today by metropolitan area. As reported by the Washington Business Journal, the headline number is that first quarter prices in D.C. were up 4.7 percent year over year for single-family homes. However, prices were actually down quarter over quarter.
