Heat Score measures fundamentals — yield, affordability, employment — while the 12-month outlook is a statistical projection. They often disagree: markets tend to score well by being cheap relative to rents and incomes, and a market can be cheap because prices are falling. These three score well on both, but plenty of high-scoring ZIPs are projected to decline. Every state page shows the full ranking, and each ZIP page shows how accurate its own forecast has been.

How it works

From a whole state down to a single ZIP, without leaving the table.

01

Start with a state

Browse North Carolina, Texas, or Georgia and see every covered ZIP ranked by Heat Score, with values, forecasts, and yields side by side.

02

Compare on the numbers

Sort and filter by what actually drives a decision — gross yield, price-to-income, forecast direction — instead of reading one market at a time.

03

Dig into a ZIP

Open any ZIP for its value history, demographics, forecast, and an honest read on how well that forecast has performed for that specific market.

The numbers investors actually screen on

Public data, assembled properly, and honest about what it can and cannot tell you.

Heat Scores

Every ZIP is scored on price-to-income, rental yield, unemployment, owner-occupancy, and median income. The rules are fixed and the inputs are shown, so you can see why a market scores the way it does rather than trusting a black box.

Rents and affordability

Zillow rent estimates and Census demographics sit next to home values, so gross yield and price-to-income are already worked out instead of being three tabs and a spreadsheet away.

12-month forecasts

A statistical model projects each ZIP twelve months ahead — and every forecast ships with its own backtest error and whether it beat a naive baseline, so you can tell a reliable one from a shaky one.

Refreshed weekly

An automated pipeline pulls Zillow and Census data, retrains the forecasts, and rebuilds every score each week. No stale numbers sitting behind a dashboard.

Home values and rents from Zillow research data. Demographics from the U.S. Census Bureau, ACS 5-year estimates.
