A label that is not listed has no published median: the RTA published none (too few bonds). It is never zero, and never 'no homes'. Labels: The RTA's own, word for word: 'Flat 1', 'Flat 2', 'Flat 3', 'House 2', 'House 3', 'House 4', 'Townhouse 2', 'Townhouse 3', and 'All dwellings' (the main feed's figure); for Queensland as a whole it also gives 'Rooming Accommodation' and 'General Tenancies'. The RTA's workbook does not define them. DwellDelta reads the number as the count of bedrooms - a two-bedroom flat or unit, a three-bedroom house - and has not found the RTA saying so in words; other sizes, such as a one-bedroom house or a four-bedroom unit, have no label of their own. For a suburb or a council they are inside 'All dwellings' only, and so is rooming accommodation. For Queensland as a whole 'General Tenancies' and 'Rooming Accommodation' add up to 'All dwellings', bond for bond. breakdown[label] is one figure.

Straight about the data

What this cannot tell you

These are medians of the bonds or leases of newly let homes. They are not advertised rents, and not what sitting tenants pay.
A median moves with the mix of homes let or sold: a change can be new apartments, or more large houses, and not the same homes costing more.
Small areas rest on few bonds or sales. Where a publisher withholds a figure this page shows a gap, never zero, and small samples are marked.
'All dwellings' takes in rooming accommodation as well as flats, houses and town houses. Where many rooms are let, a suburb's all-dwellings median can sit far below what a flat or a house rents for there, and its change on a year can be a change in that mix: where the table by dwelling type shows flats and houses, compare with them.
Each state measures in its own way. Do not add, average or rank figures across states.

Rents

What DwellDelta changed: Selected by DwellDelta from the RTA workbook: the 'All dwellings' row for each suburb, council and Queensland. No RTA figure is altered. change_pct is calculated by DwellDelta from the RTA's two medians (this quarter against the same quarter a year before).

The 6 limits this file states

Medians of NEW bonds lodged with the RTA in the quarter (new tenancies) - not advertised rents, and not what sitting tenants pay.
A median moves with the mix of homes let: a change can be new apartments or a different mix of homes, not rents rising for the same homes.
All dwellings and all sizes together: a suburb of units and a suburb of houses are not like for like. 'All dwellings' takes in rooming accommodation as well as flats, houses and town houses: for Queensland as a whole, 6,519 of its 59,071 new bonds are under the RTA's label 'Rooming Accommodation' (median $395 a week, against $670 for 'General Tenancies'). The workbook gives that split for the state only. Where many rooms are let, a suburb's all-dwellings median can sit far below what a flat or a house rents for there, and its change on a year can be a change in that mix: check the suburb's flats and houses in the companion file of rents by dwelling type, published beside this one, and where the all-dwellings figure is far below them do not quote it as a typical rent.
Null where the RTA published no median (too few bonds); rows resting on fewer than 30 new bonds are flagged small_sample.
Suburb and council names are the RTA's own, e.g. "Brisbane (C)". change_pct is DwellDelta's calculation, not the RTA's.

Rents by dwelling type

What DwellDelta changed: Selected by DwellDelta from the RTA workbook: every dwelling label for which the RTA publishes a median, for each suburb, council and Queensland. No RTA figure is altered. change_pct is calculated by DwellDelta from the RTA's two medians (this quarter against the same quarter a year before). Labels with no median are left out (see absent_means).

The 8 limits this file states

Medians of NEW bonds lodged with the RTA in the quarter (new tenancies) - not advertised rents, and not what sitting tenants pay.
The narrower the group, the fewer the bonds. Rows resting on fewer than 30 new bonds are flagged small_sample: check it before quoting, and prefer the council's figure where the suburb's is a small sample.
A figure is the median for that label among the bonds lodged, not the rent of any one home, and it still moves with the mix of homes let.
A label that is absent has no published median. Do not fill it from a neighbour, a wider group or an earlier quarter without saying so.
For a suburb or a council, 'All dwellings' is not the labels here added together: it also takes in rooming accommodation, and every letting the RTA gives no median under these labels. (For Queensland as a whole the RTA's 'General Tenancies' and 'Rooming Accommodation' do add up to it, bond for bond.) Where a suburb's all-dwellings figure sits far below its flats' and houses', quote the flats' and houses' figures, and say which label.
The RTA does not define its labels; reading 'Flat 2' as a two-bedroom flat or unit is DwellDelta's reading. Say 'Flat 2 (the RTA's label)' if the exact meaning matters.
Suburb and council names are the RTA's own, e.g. "Brisbane (C)". change_pct is DwellDelta's calculation, not the RTA's.
