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 20 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 |
|---|---|---|
| Gonzalez Suarez | $735 | 12 |
| La Republica | $672 | 21 |
| La Carolina | $628 | 25 |
| Mariscal Sucre | $598 | 42 |
| La Floresta | $595 | 19 |
| Belisario Quevedo | $0 | 16 |

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.
