Small sample — not ranked
These neighborhoods are published separately because they carry far fewer analysed properties than most: 70 or under, against a median of 350 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.
| Neighborhood | Monthly revenue | Listings |
|---|---|---|
| Brás | $768 | 23 |
| Campo Belo | $501 | 12 |
| Santa Cecília | $500 | 70 |
| Barra Funda | $480 | 68 |
| Cursino | $440 | 10 |

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.
