Small sample — not ranked
These neighborhoods are published separately because they carry far fewer analysed properties than most: 42 or under, against a median of 43 across the rest. The figure is what that sample gives, and with so few properties a single listing can move it a long way. We do not rank them against those above, nor use them to say which is the most expensive or the most affordable.

|---|---|---|
| Costa Azul | $957 | 11 |
| Dois de Julho | $912 | 16 |
| Itapuã | $811 | 29 |

| Centro | $663 | 23 |

Sources & methodology
Public short-term-rental data (Airbnb and similar platforms), computed over a broad sample of entire homes active during the month — not a full census of the market. Monthly revenue is an estimate of gross per-listing income (median), before Airbnb fees, cleaning, taxes and other host costs; it is not an income promise for any specific unit. Immutable monthly series.
