What the sales say
The kind of place Kells is
Read out of the sales themselves. None of this is a description of what Kells is like to live in, which we have no way of knowing. It is what changed hands here.
Established housing
Almost nothing sold here since 2016 was new: 0% of sales. What changes hands is what is already there.
Very mixed housing
The dearer end of the middle half went for 2.29 times the cheaper end. A gap that wide usually means quite different kinds of home sitting side by side.
Rarely comes up
11 sales counted in 2020. At that rate, waiting for the right house here means waiting.

How the place was worked out
The register has no town column. It has an address, and the place is read out of it: the county is stripped off and the part left at the end is the locality. Addresses that end in a street name rather than a place are not counted towards anywhere.
A place appears here only where at least forty sales were recorded in it, and a figure is printed for a year only where at least ten sales sat behind it.
