About This Ranking

Data Source: Rankings based on Zillow Home Value Index (ZHVI) data, which tracks typical home values for homes in the 35th to 65th percentile range. Data is updated monthly.

Methodology: ZIP codes are ranked by 1-year appreciation rate. Only ZIP codes with population above 1,000 and current home values above $100,000 are included to ensure meaningful comparisons.

Investment Note: Past appreciation doesn't guarantee future performance. Consider local economic factors, job market trends, infrastructure development, and demographic shifts when evaluating real estate opportunities.

Data accurate as of November 2024. Market conditions change rapidly. Always consult with local real estate professionals before making investment decisions.
