Each comparison is our own arithmetic on two published figures from the same release and the same month — not a separately published statistic.
A single monthly house price figure for one local authority moves around more than a regional or national one, because far fewer homes are sold into it. A large jump or fall in one month is more often a change in which properties happened to sell than a change in what any given home is worth.
