Cities with the fastest-growing home prices in West Virginia
The real estate frenzy spurred by the coronavirus pandemic continues, though at a slower pace. Buyers are still competing for a limited supply of housing, driving up prices for affordable properties.
The typical home value in the United States was $371,757 in July, 1.1% higher than the year before.
Increasing mortgage rates have slowed growth, with prices even declining in some places. But some areas are still seeing price jumps compared to the year before.
Stacker compiled a list of cities with the fastest-growing home prices in West Virginia using data from Zillow. Cities are ranked by the dollar change in the Zillow Home Values Index for all homes from the 12 months ending July 2026. The charts in this story were created automatically using Matplotlib. Data was available for 50 cities and towns in West Virginia.
