Hamden 06514 is in New Haven, CT, part of the New Haven Metro. The ZIP-wide typical value in Hamden 06514 is $340,819 (Zillow Home Value Index, September 2026), up 5.2% from a year earlier. Homes that sold went under contract in a median 64 days, and 21% of listings took a price cut (Redfin Data Center, period ending Sep 30, 2026). On Lotvox's market-leverage reading of that data, with 3.9 months of supply, neither buyers nor sellers hold a clear edge. The Lotvox Turnover Index is not published for 06514 yet: it appears only where a held-out test on the county's recorded sales beats chance. Across New Haven's 40 ZIPs with a Zillow value, the middle one is $400,190, so 06514 sits 15% below the county middle. Typical rent is $2,276 a month (Zillow Observed Rent Index, September 2026). Lotvox holds county assessor records for 14,017 properties in 06514.

2026-09-30
Redfin market data (county + ZIP), via Lotvox. As of 2026-09-30. Normal = same-month median of monthly rates, minimum 3 same-month points. Source window 3 months (flows shown per month). months_of_supply is not published at this grain (0 non-null rows measured); derived here as active listings / closed sales per month. A fresher supply-only read (36 new, 67 active, 2026-09-01, Realtor.com inventory (county + ZIP), via Lotvox) is available but is NOT used in the net — that source publishes no closed sales, so subtracting across it would mix two vintages.

Price Bands — the median behind the median
A single median rises whenever expensive homes become a bigger share of what sells, even if no tier got more expensive. These are the tiers underneath it, computed from recorded arms-length deed transactions in New Haven.

No mix-shift history for this area. no geography from this ZIP up to metro has 8+ quarters of 10+ recorded arms-length sales across at least 4 price tiers. Trends are drawn only from recorded transactions; the last-sale snapshot above cannot carry a time series, because a property that sold twice keeps only its latest sale — which drags the history upward through the tiers and would invent the very mix shift this section exists to test for.
