How it's calculated
n odd: the ((n + 1) ÷ 2)th value n even: the mean of the (n ÷ 2)th and (n ÷ 2 + 1)th values
The median splits the data in half and, unlike the mean, is barely moved by a few extreme values, which is why it is used for incomes and house prices. Compare it with the mean: a mean far above the median points to a long right tail.
