The cities listed are the primary principal cities of the 50 largest US metro areas. If you were to filter simply by largest cities, you start getting large suburbs mixed in and would end up with multiple cities for some metro areas and none for others, and I wanted to look more at the “cores” of the largest metropolitan areas.

I think it would be good to see the what the before and after price was for each city. A 1% rise in a cheap city means something completely different to a 4% drop in an expensive city.

Hartford feels looks to benefit from people priced out of New York and Boston Metros. It’s medium home price is less than half of Boston Metro, for example.
Buffalo apparently has the most jobs created per housing permits issued so it seems like they are really pivoting to new economy and don’t have the inventory yet. Good for buffalo!
San Francisco is San Francisco and the AI boom (regardless of how you feel about it) has impact on housing prices even in a cooling housing market overall.
There’s a lot of other stories here and this doesn’t capture much at all, but fun to cherry pick the growth areas and see what’s driving it
