Rentals: still a high-ask ZIP
If you are watching rentals (or considering buying to avoid rent), HAR’s ZIP rental trend table shows a February 2026 median rent around $3,500 with a relatively small count of rental listings. In practice, that usually means renters have fewer choices and are competing for the best-located homes and townhomes.
