What would change this read: a price correction (median already −3.8% YoY) or rent growth lifting rent-to-price toward 0.8%/mo would move this ZIP toward a cash-flow story. inventory, +2.5% YoY, is the number to watch.
The median listing price is down 3.8% YoY while the median home got up 1.1% bigger, so value per square foot is down 4.8%.

Not shown: 8 BR (no price per sq ft reported).

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.
