Methodology & data sources
Asking prices and medians
There are 59 active for-sale and 13 active for-lease listings in Rocky Mount, NC. The medians are based on 41 of the for-sale and 6 of the for-lease listings, those that state a price or rent per square foot. These are ASKING figures from live listings, not closed-transaction prices, and a figure resting on fewer than 10 listings says so where it is quoted.
Vacancy rates
Published per-sector market series, taken at the metro level where one exists and otherwise at the Census-region level — a chart reading "in <region> region" is a regional number, not this city's.
Refresh
The monthly aggregates close at the end of the previous month, so 31 October 2026 — not today — is the honest last update.
Known limitations
office vacancy is reported at South region level, retail vacancy is reported at South region level, industrial vacancy is reported at South region level and asking prices run materially above recent closed pricing.
Coverage
Metrics below the 10-observation threshold fall back one geographic level. The geography used is named on each figure.
