the Birmingham market · Data as of 2026-10-02 · ALEX Intelligence

Methodology

Source:

U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, 2019 and 2024

Measure

5-Year Home Value Appreciation, ranked highest first across Bibb, Blount, Chilton, Jefferson, Shelby, St. Clair, Walker County (and neighbours), AL (31 ranked in total).

How the headline figure is computed

The tenth-highest value minus the tenth-lowest, across all 31 ranked units. The single extremes are deliberately not used.

Universe

Places below a 5,000-resident floor are excluded so a median computed on a handful of households cannot top the ranking.

Vintage
