This data, drawn from ALEX Intelligence’s 2026 ranking of Houston metro cities, reveals a deep demographic shift: mature populations are stabilizing the housing market, but at the cost of future growth. What does this mean for investment, development, and buyer strategy in the next decade? The source: https://alex-companies.com/data/2026-10-25-houston-msa-median-age-place-mkt.
