Cities with the fastest-growing home prices in the Los Angeles metro area
The real estate frenzy spurred by the coronavirus pandemic continues, though at a slower pace. Buyers are still competing for a limited supply of housing, driving up prices for affordable properties.
The typical home value in the United States was $349,216 in February, 4.2% higher than the year before.
Increasing mortgage rates have slowed growth, with prices even declining in some places. But some areas are still seeing price jumps compared to the year before.
Stacker compiled a list of cities with the fastest-growing home prices in the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA metro area using data from Zillow. Cities are ranked by their one-year price change as of February 2024.
