How to read this map
An area counts here if it has a metro station inside it. We don't measure distance, and the rent covers the whole area, so a home right next to one could cost more or less.
Places come from OpenStreetMap, which volunteers edit and which doesn't include everything, so an area left out may still have a metro station. DLD rental records have no usable bedroom field, so a flat's type is estimated from its size. Villas are recorded as villas.
