How to use typical in a sentence?

1. Brad Duchaine:

   Differences in face recognition ability in the typical population result primarily from genetic differences, developmental prosopagnosia (DP) often runs in families, so it is likely that genetic factors play a big role in the emergence of most cases of DP. However, we haven't identified any of the genes involved in face recognition yet.

2. Ben Crump:

   How ironic and typical that the only charges brought in this case were for shots fired into the apartment of a white neighbor, while no charges were brought for the shots fired into the Black neighbor's apartment or into Breonna's residence, this amounts to the most egregious disrespect of Black people, especially Black women, killed by police in America, and it's indefensible, regardless of how Attorney General Daniel Cameron seeks to justify it.

3. Hannah Jones:

   At the current price and mortgage rate level, the typical housing payment on a median-priced home is 43% higher than one year ago.

4. Krishna Rao:

   The accuracy for an on-the-market home is better because we have more up-to-date information, the typical home information may be out-of-date. Owners added something or renovated. Our estimates can't incorporate that information.

5. Terry Shumaker:

   That is a real tradition. Virtually everybody that has run for president has spoken at one or more of those over the years, my guess is that will really heat up after the new year, and that's a great way to meet a crowd that's not a typical political crowd -- it's bipartisan, heavy on business people and education and non-profit types and students.
