State figures: FHFA quarterly all-transactions index, annualized as the mean of the four quarterly (NSA) values. The chart uses quarterly readings, with each series set to 100 in the first quarter of 2005. ZIP figures: FHFA annual five-digit ZIP index (developmental), ZIPs with sufficient transaction history. Missing years are reported as missing by FHFA and are not estimated. Each ZIP is placed in the metro that holds the county with most of its housing units. “5-yr /yr” and “10-yr /yr” are compound annual growth over the window ending 2025; all figures are nominal.
