Data Extension: China subnational - HPI by floor space
Tuesday, 29 May 2018 17:07 ET
By Jacky Cheung
Summary
May 2018 -- We have obtained five additional years of history (2005 to 2009) for the detailed house price index for 70 large and medium cities in China (1,890 monthly series extended).
Detail

The start date has been improved from January 2010 to January 2005. Properties are otherwise unchanged (see related article).

The series reside in the historical catalog (China » Real Estate » Residential » House Price Index » 2015=100) and include, for example:

  • HPINMUM.ICHN_BE    = House price index - new residential buildings, (Index prv. mo.=100, NSA) - for Beijing
  • HPINZ2YUM.ICHN_BEI = New residential buildings by floor space, 90 to 144 square meters, (Index CPPY=100, NSA) - for Beihai
  • HPIXUM.ICHN_ZUN    = Existing residential building, (Index 2015=100, SA) - for Zunyi

Because catalog locations are subject to change, the upper-right search box on DataBuffet.com provides a "find in catalog" mode that accepts a mnemonic.

Please be aware that

In September 2017, the dataset was rebased from 2010 to 2015, starting from January 2016. Subsequently, earlier history was appended, but using the 2010 base year. That is, NBS reports continuous series, but with a break at December 2015/January 2016. Based on experience, we do not expect this to change, and as a matter of policy, we republish "historical" series verbatim, whereas the task of imposing consistent definitions falls to our "estimated" series.
