Guess Which Arizona City Was Among Hottest ZIP Codes Of 2024?
When making one of the biggest decisions of their life, homeowners shouldn’t have to choose between their peace of mind and their next move. Instead, we’re declaring 2025 as the year that buyers and sellers reclaim “me” time and leave other stressors behind. That said, which were the hottest ZIP codes of 2024?
Buying a home already brings up a whirlwind of emotions – stress being #1 – and while a majority of buyers and sellers are excited about this next step, we found that Americans spent over a third of their waking hours solely on the home buying or selling process. Not only that, homeowners are losing sleep over the process – from being worried about offers falling through to finding it difficult to emotionally part with their home.
Similar to 2023, Houston, Texas is dominating the top two spots of our list – but Katy moved into the top spot over Cypress this year. This comes as no surprise as Houston’s housing costs are among some of the lowest in the nation. And while Texas and Florida are heavily represented on our list, we also saw returning favorites like Summerville, South Carolina and Clarksvillle, Tennessee. We welcome three cities in the Tampa area to our list, as well as a new neighborhood in Austin, Texas.
Over the past three years, we’ve seen people choose to move away from city centers in favor of tighter-knit communities, but still live close enough to commute and be close to the action. This year’s most popular areas are known for being fast-growing cities with plenty of new development, with healthy job growth in Florida and Texas in particular. If you’re looking to start over in 2025, use our top 20 list as your moving companion guide:

Hottest ZIP Codes Methodology: Top ZIP codes are identified by analyzing data from the local Multiple Listing Services (MLS) where Opendoor Brokerage operates. ZIPs were ranked by total homes which went into contract within 90 days of listing in 2024.
Hidden Gems Methodology: Opendoor examined the number of new listings in its markets, in its buybox, [in certain price bands], and calculated the percentage increase in number of new listings from January 2024 to November 2024 on a zip code level. A ZIP code needed at least 5 new listings in both months to qualify for the list. – more at azbigmedia.com
