Rent of $1,070 comes second in the city, 4% over the $1,035 level. Construction is recent too: only 19.7% of the stock predates 1980, the smallest share in Sioux Falls, and the midpoint year is 1997. Southwest District comes nearest in newness yet reports $288,000, with ownership of 55%. Central District reports $235,000, while Northeast District reports $220,000, so both sit at the low end. Central District has just 55.4% owners and Northeast District 59.3%, so neither comes close to Southeast's level of ownership.
