“The average sales price for apartments in New York City jumped 15 percent in the first quarter to $1,773,523, according to a report from Douglas Elliman Real Estate and Miller Samuel. The average price per square foot jumped 16 percent to $1,363.”

something is wrong with the data, as

those figures would mean the “average” apartment in NYC was 1301 sq ft ($1,773,523 / $1,363). I think that is way more than the actual average size of a NYC apartment.

I guess that NOT all NYC apartments are included in those figures, but only those covered by recent condo/coop sales, which is nowhere near all apartments,nor even the whole market for apartments in NYC.
