The Texas housing market has undergone remarkable transformations over the past fourteen years, reflecting the state’s dynamic economic growth, demographic shifts, and changing urban landscapes. From the technology-driven boom in Austin to the steady appreciation in historic towns like Fredericksburg, each market tells a unique story of development and change. This analysis examines home values across 50 Texas cities, revealing not just current market positions but the journey each location has taken since 2010.
Using data sourced on December 12, 2024, from the Zillow Home Value Index, our study reveals significant variations in growth patterns across the state.

The findings paint a picture of a state where real estate values have been shaped by diverse factors including economic development, population growth, and regional industry trends. From the highest-valued market of Fredericksburg at $477,031 to more modest markets like Alice at $121,822, the data reveals the wide spectrum of housing costs across the Lone Star State.
