I'm struggling to get anything from this. Looks like median days on market moved up or down largely independent of location? Or is there another point I'm missing?

If the median days on market increased by 24 days during a 30 day month that implies that sales have fallen off a cliff.

That would be a percent increase.

Percent of what? If it was 1 hour and it went up 24% now its 1 hour 15 min?

Days. Each home listed for sale has been on the market for a certain number of days. The data for all listings in a county has been used to calculate a median number of days on market for each county. This statistic is reported each month by realtor.com. This map shows the change in that statistic from September to October.

Each county is calculated seperately.

Some of it is noise. You have to look for patterns, out west, in the north, in rural areas. But you are right, a lot of it is random.
