Best In Colorado Real Estate™: Colorado Springs

🏆 Ranked #1 in Housing Vacancy Rate — Fort Carson, Colorado Springs, 2024 — ALEX Intelligence, 2026. The highest vacancy rate in Colorado Springs isn’t a red flag — it’s a feature of Fort Carson’s role as a military anchor. With 9.7% of housing units vacant, this isn’t distress inventory; it’s a stable, federally managed reserve supporting national defense. Unlike civilian markets, where vacancy signals weakness, Fort Carson’s high vacancy reflects operational readiness and long-term population stability. How does this affect your real estate strategy? The data from https://alex-companies.com/data/2026-09-24-colorado-springs-vacancy-share-place-mkt shows that Fort Carson leads the metro — a fact no other market can replicate. The military’s presence isn’t just about jobs; it’s about structural housing stability.
