Nationwide’s analysis frames the higher prices as part of a broader pattern seen across the housing market, linking location in protected areas to elevated costs. The sources provided do not specify the exact dataset, time period, or the specific “cheapest” and “most expensive” locations within national parks, though the article titles indicate that Nationwide also ranks areas by price. The coverage emphasizes the overall premium figure rather than detailing local differences or the drivers behind pricing.
