North Texas cities lead U.S. real estate market, with McKinney, Frisco, Denton, and Allen in the top 10
McKinney, Texas – Based on strong economic strength and housing market appeal, North Texas communities have become frontrunners in the U.S. real estate market according to a recent WalletHub report. Four of these cities, which appeal to both investors and homeowners, landed places in the top 10 countrywide.
Using 17 major criteria, the study—which included three hundred cities of different sizes—measured two main categories: “real estate market” and “affordability and economic environment.” Among other things, metrics covered median home-price appreciation, housing affordability, and job growth. Cities were rated on a 100-point system; 100 denoting the healthiest market.
McKinney topped the list not only with regard to general performance but also with regard to most criteria. Frisco, which scored second overall and top in the affordability and economic environment category, closely followed and underlined its ideal circumstances for individuals as well as companies.
Denton and Allen also gave outstanding performances; Denton finished seventh and Allen ninth. Their rankings show a consistent pattern of economic growth and housing market strength that has come to define North Texas.
For prospective homeowners and real estate investors, the importance of these rankings is almost impossible to overstate. These places provide excellent opportunities for long-term investment since elements like cost and economic health are very important. The outcomes also point to a healthy competitive spirit among cities, thus promoting settings that give inhabitants’ financial well-being and quality of living first priority.
With Austin, Fort Worth, and Dallas all ranking in the top 20 in their respective categories, WalletHub’s breakdown also highlighted the success of bigger Texas cities, effectively highlighting the general strength of the Lone Star State real estate markets.
Such studies are quite helpful for people wishing to buy new houses or invest in real estate as the housing market changes since they provide a whole picture of where the most suitable conditions are found. For anyone considering a move or investment in North Texas, these rankings provide compelling evidence of the region’s real estate market vitality.

“Current home prices are extremely important, but there’s much more that you need to look at when determining the health of a city’s real estate market. Factors like the cost of living, the potential for the value of homes to increase, the availability of recently-built homes and the quality of the city’s job market are all important to consider in conjunction with asking prices and interest rates. The best cities may not always be the cheapest, but they offer excellent housing options and long-term stability,” WalletHub analyst Cassandra Happe noted.
