Question

I think it says it clearly in the title:
lets assume we have this table called realestate:

 id     type
  1      4
  2      5
  3      5
  4      1
  5      4
  6      4

I want the output to be type=4 because it’s the highest frequent type and I want it to output the frequency of the previous type which is here count=3

Answer 1

SELECT `type`, COUNT(1) AS `count`
FROM `realestate`
GROUP BY `type`
ORDER BY `count` DESC
LIMIT 1
