Adjusted for average rent and wage increases over time, the base rent on Mediterranean Avenue should now be $107, while the money for passing go should be $7,737, and the buy price for Mediterranean Avenue should be $2 461

(Increases calculated from averages calculated from https://www.epi.org/publication/charting-wage-stagnation/ , https://ipropertymanagement.com/research/average-rent-by-year, https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/ASPUS and https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Case%E2%80%93Shiller_index )
