The house price to rent ratio index in the U.S. declined in the second half of 2022 and remained stable until the end of 2024, indicating that house price growth slowed down compared to rental growth. At its peak, in the second quarter of 2022, the index stood at *****. House prices increased dramatically since the coronavirus pandemic. Meanwhile, rents have grown notably, but at a slower rate. What does the house price to rent ratio index measure? The house-price-to-rent-ratio measures the evolution of house prices compared to rents. It is calculated by dividing the median house price by the median annual rent. In this statistic, the values have been normalized with 100 equaling the 2015 ratio. Consequentially, a value under 100 means that rental rates have risen more than house prices. Compared to the OECD countries average, the gap between house prices and rents in the United States was wider. The house price to rent ratio in different countries The house price to rent ratio in the United Kingdom continued to increase in the second half of 2022, but growth softened, as the housing market cooled. On the other hand, the index in Germany fell drastically between the second quarter of 2022 and the second quarter of 2023. A similar trend was observed in France.

This statistic shows the rent per square foot to income ratio in selected markets in the United States in 2017. In 2017, Chicago was the most affordable rental market in the U.S. as residents spent, on average, **** percent of their income on rent.

Portugal, Canada, and the United States were the countries with the highest house price to income ratio in 2024. In all three countries, the index exceeded 130 index points, while the average for all OECD countries stood at 116.2 index points. The index measures the development of housing affordability and is calculated by dividing nominal house price by nominal disposable income per head, with 2015 set as a base year when the index amounted to 100. An index value of 120, for example, would mean that house price growth has outpaced income growth by 20 percent since 2015. How have house prices worldwide changed since the COVID-19 pandemic? House prices started to rise gradually after the global financial crisis (2007–2008), but this trend accelerated with the pandemic. The countries with advanced economies, which usually have mature housing markets, experienced stronger growth than countries with emerging economies. Real house price growth (accounting for inflation) peaked in 2022 and has since lost some of the gain. Although, many countries experienced a decline in house prices, the global house price index shows that property prices in 2023 were still substantially higher than before COVID-19. Renting vs. buying In the past, house prices have grown faster than rents. However, the home affordability has been declining notably, with a direct impact on rental prices. As people struggle to buy a property of their own, they often turn to rental accommodation. This has resulted in a growing demand for rental apartments and soaring rental prices.

This dataset contains information about the percent of income households spend on rent in cities in San Mateo County. This data is for renters only, not those who live in owner-occupied homes with or without a mortgage. This data was extracted from the United States Census Bureau's American Community Survey 2014 5 year estimates.

Commercial leasing providers serve as lessors of buildings for nonresidential purposes. Industry participants include owner-lessors of nonresidential buildings, establishments that rent real estate and then act as lessors in subleasing it and establishments that provide full-service office space. Through the end of 2025, lessors have experienced mixed demand from critical downstream market segments. Since the onset of COVID-19, demand for office space has been volatile amid work-from-home and hybrid work arrangements. However, demand for industrial and retail spaces has risen, bolstered by gaining e-commerce sales and resilient consumer spending, buoying industry revenue. Over the past five years, industry revenue has climbed at a CAGR of 0.6% to reach $257.5 billion, including an estimated 0.7% gain in 2025. From 2020 to 2022, commercial leasing companies benefited from low interest rates, stimulating business expansion. However, in response to surging inflation, the Federal Reserve began raising interest rates in 2022 and continued into 2023. Rising interest rates translated into higher borrowing costs for tenants seeking new leases for their business operations. This can make expanding or relocating to a larger space more expensive. The industry benefited from three interest rate cuts in 2024. Industry profit remains high, reaching 51.6% of industry revenue in 2025. Industry revenue will climb at a CAGR of 2.6% to $292.9 billion through the end of 2030. Demand for office space will remain subdued over the next five years. However, a shortage of prime office spaces will elevate rent for Class A office buildings, benefiting lessors with those in their portfolios. Per capita disposable income growth and a continuation of climbing consumer spending will bolster demand for retail spaces, especially in suburban and Sun Belt markets. E-commerce sales will continue to power demand for industrial space as the percentage of e-commerce sales to total retail sales will mount.

The Property Valuation Data Listing offered by BatchData delivers an extensive and detailed dataset designed to provide unparalleled insight into real estate market trends, property values, and investment opportunities. This dataset includes over 9 critical data points that offer a comprehensive view of property valuations across various geographic regions and market conditions. Below is an in-depth description of the data points and their implications for users in the real estate industry.

The Property Valuation Data Listing by BatchData is categorized into four primary sections, each offering detailed insights into different aspects of property valuation. Here’s an in-depth look at each category:

1. Current Valuation AVM Value as of Specific Date: The Automated Valuation Model (AVM) estimate of the property’s current market value, calculated as of a specified date. This value reflects the most recent assessment based on available data. Use Case: Provides an up-to-date valuation, essential for making current investment decisions, setting sale prices, or conducting market analysis. Valuation Confidence Score: A measure indicating the confidence level of the AVM value. This score reflects the reliability of the valuation based on data quality, volume, and model accuracy. Use Case: Helps users gauge the reliability of the valuation estimate. Higher confidence scores suggest more reliable values, while lower scores may indicate uncertainty or data limitations.

2. Valuation Range Price Range Minimum: The lowest estimated market value for the property within the given range. This figure represents the lower bound of the valuation spectrum. Use Case: Useful for understanding the potential minimum value of the property, helping in scenarios like setting a reserve price in auctions or evaluating downside risk. Price Range Maximum: The highest estimated market value for the property within the given range. This figure represents the upper bound of the valuation spectrum. Use Case: Provides insight into the potential maximum value, aiding in price setting, investment analysis, and comparative market assessments. AVM Value Standard Deviation: A statistical measure of the variability or dispersion of the AVM value estimates. It indicates how much the estimated values deviate from the average AVM value. Use Case: Assists in understanding the variability of the valuation and assessing the stability of the estimated value. A higher standard deviation suggests more variability and potential uncertainty.

3. LTV (Loan to Value Ratio) Current Loan to Value Ratio: The ratio of the outstanding loan balance to the current market value of the property, expressed as a percentage. This ratio helps assess the risk associated with the loan relative to the property’s value. Use Case: Crucial for lenders and investors to evaluate the financial risk of a property. A higher LTV ratio indicates higher risk, as the property value is lower compared to the loan amount.

4. Valuation Equity Calculated Total Equity: based upon estimate amortized balances for all open liens and AVM value Use Case: Provides insight into the net worth of the property for the owner. Useful for evaluating the financial health of the property, planning for refinancing, or understanding the owner’s potential gain or loss in case of sale.

This structured breakdown of data points offers a comprehensive view of property valuations, allowing users to make well-informed decisions based on current market conditions, valuation accuracy, financial risk, and equity potential.

This map shows housing costs as a percentage of household income. Severe housing cost burden is described as when over 50% of income in a household is spent on housing costs. For renters it is over 50% of household income going towards gross rent (contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities). Miami, Florida accounts for the having the highest population of renters with severe housing burden costs.The map's topic is shown by tract and county centroids. This service is updated annually to contain the most currently released American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year data, and contains estimates and margins of error. There are also additional calculated attributes related to this topic, which can be mapped or used within analysis. Income is based on earnings in past 12 months of survey.

Definitions

Home Types and Housing Stock

• All Homes: Zillow defines all homes as single-family, condominium and co-operative homes with a county record. Unless specified, all series cover this segment of the housing stock.
• Condo/Co-op: Condominium and co-operative homes.
• Multifamily 5+ units: Units in buildings with 5 or more housing units, that are not a condominiums or co-ops.
• Duplex/Triplex: Housing units in buildings with 2 or 3 housing units.

Additional Data Products

• Zillow Home Value Forecast (ZHVF): The ZHVF is the one-year forecast of the ZHVI. Our forecast methodology is methodology post.
• Zillow creates our negative equity data using our own data in conjunction with data received through our partnership with TransUnion, a leading credit bureau. We match estimated home values against actual outstanding home-related debt amounts provided by TransUnion. To read more about how we calculate our negative equity metrics, please see our here.
• Cash Buyers: The share of homes in a given area purchased without financing/in cash. To read about how we calculate our cash buyer data, please see our research brief.
• Mortgage Affordability, Rental Affordability, Price-to-Income Ratio, Historical ZHVI, Historical ZHVI and Houshold Income are calculated as a part of Zillow’s quarterly Affordability Indices. To calculate mortgage affordability, we first calculate the mortgage payment for the median-valued home in a metropolitan area by using the metro-level Zillow Home Value Index for a given quarter and the 30-year fixed mortgage interest rate during that time period, provided by the Freddie Mac Primary Mortgage Market Survey (based on a 20 percent down payment). Then, we consider what portion of the monthly median household income (U.S. Census) goes toward this monthly mortgage payment. Median household income is available with a lag. For quarters where median income is not available from the U.S. Census Bureau, we calculate future quarters of median household income by estimating it using the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Employment Cost Index. The affordability forecast is calculated similarly to the current affordability index but uses the one year Zillow Home Value Forecast instead of the current Zillow Home Value Index and a specified interest rate in lieu of PMMS. It also assumes a 20 percent down payment. We calculate rent affordability similarly to mortgage affordability; however we use the Zillow Rent Index, which tracks the monthly median rent in particular geographical regions, to capture rental prices. Rents are chained back in time by using U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey data from 2006 to the start of the Zillow Rent Index, and Decennial Census for all other years.
• The mortgage rate series is the average mortgage rate quoted on Zillow Mortgages for a 30-year, fixed-rate mortgage in 15-minute increments during business hours, 6:00 AM to 5:00 PM Pacific. It does not include quotes for jumbo loans, FHA loans, VA loans, loans with mortgage insurance or quotes to consumers with credit scores below 720. Federal holidays are excluded. The jumbo mortgage rate series is the average jumbo mortgage rate quoted on Zillow Mortgages for a 30-year, fixed-rate, jumbo mortgage in one-hour increments during business hours, 6:00 AM to 5:00 PM Pacific Time. It does not include quotes to consumers with credit scores below 720. Traditional federal holidays and hours with insufficient sample sizes are excluded.

In 2023, single-family homes and apartments in buildings with five or more units were the most popular structure for renters in the United States. Approximately *** million people lived in a rental home, with about ** million occupying an apartment in a multifamily building. That corresponded to about ** million households in total and ** million households living in an apartment in a large residential building.

Summary File 3 Data Profile 4 (SF3 Table DP-4) for Census Tracts in the Minneapolis-St. Paul 7 County metropolitan area is a subset of the profile of selected housing characteristics for 2000 prepared by the U. S. Census Bureau.

This table (DP-4) includes: Units in Structure, Year Structure Built, Rooms, Year Householder Moved into Unit, Vehicles Available, House Heating Fuel, Selected Characteristics, Occupants per Room, Value, Mortgage Status and Selected Monthly Owner Costs, Selected Monthly Owner Costs as a Percentage of Household Income in 1999, Gross Rent, Gross Rent as a Percentage of Household Income in 1999

US Census 2000 Demographic Profiles: 100-percent and Sample Data

The profile includes four tables (DP-1 thru DP-4) that provide various demographic, social, economic, and housing characteristics for the United States, states, counties, minor civil divisions in selected states, places, metropolitan areas, American Indian and Alaska Native areas, Hawaiian home lands and congressional districts (106th Congress). It includes 100-percent and sample data from Census 2000. The DP-1 table is available as part of the Summary File 1 (SF 1) dataset, and the other three tables are available as part of the Summary File 3 (SF 3) dataset.

The US Census provides DP-1 thru DP-4 data at the Census tract level through their DataFinder search engine. However, since the Metropolitan Council and MetroGIS participants are interested in all Census tracts within the seven county metropolitan area, it was quicker to take the raw Census SF-1 and SF-3 data at tract levels and recreate the DP1-4 variables using the appropriate formula for each DP variable. This file lists the formulas used to create the DP variables.

In 2024, there were approximately **** million housing units occupied by renters in the United States. This number has been gradually increasing since 2010 as part of a long-term upward swing since 1975. Meanwhile, the number of unoccupied rental housing units has followed a downward trend, suggesting a growing demand and supply failing to catch up. Why are rental homes in such high demand? This high demand for rental homes is related to the shortage of affordable housing. Climbing the property ladder for renters is not always easy, as it requires prospective homebuyers to save up for a down payment and qualify for a mortgage. In many metros, the median household income is insufficient to qualify for the median-priced home. How many owner occupied homes are there in the U.S.? In 2023, there were over ** million owner occupied homes. Owner occupied housing is when the person who owns a property – either outright or through a mortgage – also resides in the property. Excluded are therefore rental properties, employer-provided housing and social housing.

The statistic shows the median gross rent* as a share of pre-tax household income of Millennials aged 18 to 34 in the United States from 1980 to 2009. In 2009, 18-to 24-year olds spent 32 percent of their household income on rent.
