Best In Colorado Real Estate™: Colorado Springs

Colorado Springs leads all U.S. metros in migration concentration—49.7% of new households arrive from just three states: Colorado, Texas, and California. This isn’t just a demographic shift; it’s a market transformation. The influx from Texas and California is reshaping the city’s identity, driving demand for premium housing and services, while outpacing new construction. The IRS data from ALEX Intelligence confirms this is not a short-term spike but a sustained flow. How is this concentration affecting your neighborhood? What does it mean for long-term affordability and supply?
