About this tool
Metro Supply & Demand shows how housing stock, home price appreciation, and employment growth relate to one another across metropolitan areas. It helps users see whether metros that add jobs are also adding homes, and how prices have moved in response. This is useful for judging whether a local housing shortage may be driving up costs.
