Each row is a median over unit records carrying both a price and a floor area, so a scheme publishing 400 rows weighs 400 times. A builder can sit above a community rate purely on product mix, which is why the bedroom and type splits below matter more than the headline.

Types with fewer than 10 priced records are held back, so the shares need not sum to a hundred. Product mix is the usual reason one builder reads dearer than another at the same address: a book of duplexes prices above a book of studios whoever is selling it.
