Abstract: A storage compartment arrangement for a cabin of a vehicle has a storage compartment, housing, storage compartment opening, lower compartment, and upper compartment. The compartments are directly above each other and separated by an intermediate base pivotable at least in sections into the upper compartment. Items of luggage can be placed onto a lower horizontal pivoting edge and pushed into the lower compartment. Adjacent to a lower delimitation of the upper compartment, when the intermediate base is not pivoted, an upper horizontal pivoting edge is formed, onto which items of luggage can be placed and pushed into the upper compartment. The upper compartment has an upper opening edge adjoined by an auxiliary surface extending over the upper compartment, is at an angle in a range of 10° to 50° to the intermediate base and, as the distance from the upper delimitation increases, encloses an increasing distance from the intermediate base.

Abstract: A facility for determining a housing index value for a subject geographic region for a subject period in time is described. For each home in a set of homes within the subject geographic region, the facility determines home attribute values; applies a first valuation model and second valuation for the subject geographic region to the home attributes to obtain estimated values of the home at the beginning and end of the subject period, respectively; and determines an appreciation rate for the home on the basis of the estimated values of the home at the beginning and end of the subject period. The facility combines the appreciation rates to obtain an aggregate appreciation rate for the subject period, and combines the aggregate appreciation rate for the period with a housing index value for a prior period to obtain the housing index value for the subject geographic region and subject period.
