Dallas-Fort Worth MSA

Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, TX ranks #12 of 24 Texas metros on five-year change in the metropolitan house price index (2026 Q2), with a 34.9% increase. This is not a lagging market—it’s a maturing one. Unlike the top-performing rural metros in Texas, DFW’s growth is stable, supply-constrained, and driven by long-term fundamentals.
