 "important_notes": [
  "Counts are floors: search pagination under-delivers versus displayed counts (435 unique collected against a displayed 446 on the widened box).",
  "The two platform counts may overlap and must never be added together; neither platform exposes addresses.",
  "Rate figures are observed 2-night, 2-guest stay totals on stated dates, including per-stay fees; they are not nightly rates and are never averaged across windows.",
  "Coordinates are platform-displaced by roughly 150 m; 63 of 273 live rows carry a material boundary-uncertainty flag.",
  "star_rating is blank when a listing has no reviews; blank means not observed, never zero.",
  "Nothing in this dataset is modeled or estimated.",
  "Eight Airbnb rows are hotel-style rooms, not dwelling units; counts framed as housing exclude them."
