House prices in Paris since 1200

Data

The data comes from the public cgedd's website : http://www.cgedd.developpement-durable.gouv.fr/prix-immobilier-evolution-a-long-terme-a1048.html.

The main sources of these indices of home prices in Paris are:

  • Georges d’Avenel, “Histoire économique de la propriété, des salaries, des denrées et de tous les prix en général depuis l’an 1200 jusqu’en l’an 1800”, Imprimerie Nationale and Ernest Leroux, Paris, 1894-1912,
  • Gaston Duon, "Documents sur le problème du logement", Ministère de l'Economie, Études Économiques, 1946, n°1, pages 1-165,
  • Jacques Friggit, "Comparing Four Secular Home Price Indices", June 2008, CGPC, Ministère de l'écologie, du développement durable et de l'aménagement du territoire
  • Notaries' databases
  • Indices Notaires-INSEE

The indices in nominal currency have been deflated by a consumer price index computed by splicing the following sources:

  • Years 1200-1790: D'Avenel's index of the purchasing power of silver
  • Years 1790-1798: Villa (CEPII) index of the average price of cereals
  • Years 1798-18210: "Essai sur les mouvements des revenus et l’activité économique en France de 1789 à 1820", A. Chabert, Librairie de Médicis, 1949.
  • Years 1820-1913: Lévy-Leboyer M. et Bourguignon F., «L’Économie Française au XIXème siècle, analyse macroéconomique», M. Lévy-Leboyer et F. Bourguignon, Économica, 1985.
  • 1913-2005: INSEE

These data has been gathered by Jacques Friggit according to the method exposed in this paper. Base index 1.0 in year 2000.

Note that this is the aggregation of 3 series of data and gaps are big at junctions.
