What this means
- Valuation. Prices are 19% below this area's pre-2020 price-to-income norm, cheaper relative to incomes than before the pandemic.
- Prices. Home values are up 1.4% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%), but still 13% below their 2022-23 peak.
- Supply. Listings are 100% below the 2017-19 norm: still a tight market.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is low (29/100; U.S.: 54) (as of Feb 2026): homes sell for about 15.0% below their final list price (as of Feb 2025); 0% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%) (as of Feb 2026).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 21% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $44k a year to keep the payment at 30% of gross pay. That includes about $1,922 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $141 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from flooding.
- Outlook. Leaning up: likely −4% to +12% over the next 12 months (78% chance of a rise).
