Quarterly average across active listings

Kansas City's ADR rises 51% from Jan ($133) to Jun ($201), but occupancy rises 2.1× in the same window. The revenue lever here is occupancy capture, not pricing — set rates competitively in shoulder months to maximize summer bookings, then push ADR aggressively in peak months when demand is inelastic.
