What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 350 closed sales in Cedar City over the last six months, with a median closing price of $434,950. That median is the midpoint of what buyers actually paid, not what sellers hoped to get, which is why it moves differently from the asking prices you see on listing sites. The middle half of those sales closed between $329,000 and $565,000. That spread matters more than the headline median: where a specific property sits inside it decides whether the citywide number helps you or misleads you. These are the closings we track, not a complete county record, so treat the count as a large sample of the market rather than every sale that happened.

The Cedar City angle

Cedar City runs on Southern Utah University, I-15 through traffic and its role as a base for visitors heading to the national parks, and it has a longer usable data trail than most cities this size. The median across 350 tracked closings was $434,950, with the middle half between $329,000 and $565,000. Closings tracked 36 in February, 58 in March, 55 in April, 63 in May and 81 in June, a genuine climb rather than a single busy month. The $236,000 middle-half band is fairly symmetric around the median, which is unusual and makes the median a more reliable starting reference here than in cities with lopsided spreads. A university town also means the buyer pool and the tenant pool are not the same people, and pricing should be tested against both.
