"The result is the most comprehensive and data-rich analysis to date on the potential impacts of wind projects on nearby property values." 2. "On the data and analysis presented in this report, no evidence is found that home prices surrounding wind facilities are consistently, measurably, and significantly affected by either the view of wind facilities or the distance of the home to those facilities. Although the analysis cannot dismiss the possibility that individual or small numbers of homes have been or could be negatively impacted, if these impacts do exist, they are either too small and/or too infrequent to result in any widespread and consistent statistically observable impact." In fact, this is also consistent with reports in Britain and elsewhere. Two points from the report, under ‘Conclusions’ page 75:

Of the 7500 homes studied less than 1.5% were within a mile of a wind site some were 10 miles away. Of the homes that were close the average loss in value was 5.5%, or for me £15,000!This is worthy of the B.ull#### W.ith E.very A.nswer people Maybe you cannot read!
