What would change this read: a price correction (median already +3.1% YoY) or rent growth lifting rent-to-price toward 0.8%/mo would move this ZIP toward a cash-flow story. inventory, −5.5% YoY, is the number to watch.
The median listing price is up 3.1% YoY while the median home got up 4.7% bigger, so value per square foot is up 0.5%.
Min/max come from the active-listing pool; the median comes from Realtor's separate listing set — the two are not subsets of each other, so the median's position relative to the tiles above should not be read literally.
At the median, a $207K purchase rents for $1,050/mo: 0.51% of price per month against the 1% rule's 1.00%.
Not shown: 1 BR (rent only, no matching sale price), 5 BR (sale only, no matching rent).

ZIP-level figures come from ZIP Code Tabulation Areas, which approximate but do not exactly match USPS ZIP codes. A missing value is suppressed or unavailable at this sample size, not zero. Estimates for 2019–2020 use the 2010 ZCTA boundaries and 2021–2024 the 2020 ones, so a step between those two years may be a boundary change rather than real movement.
