Amid supply constraints and surging demand, home prices have climbed rapidly in recent years. According to data from Realtor.com, the typical single family home in the United States was listed for $440,950 in June 2025, an increase of over 47% from the beginning of 2020, and up about 10% from January of 2025.
Key Points
-
America’s housing affordability crisis has continued into 2025. According to a recent study, an estimated 75% of U.S. households are unable to afford a typical home in today’s market.
-
Still, location matters when it comes to real estate, and in certain parts of the country, home prices have come down meaningfully in the last year.

While home prices have surged, wages have not. Since early 2020, median wages climbed by only 1.6% for full-time workers, adjusting for inflation. Predictably, the imbalance between growth in home price and earnings has resulted in a housing affordability crisis. When factoring in historically high mortgage rates, an estimated 75% of American households can no longer afford a new, median-priced home without taking on meaningful financial burdens, according to the National Association of Home Builders.
Notably, however, location matters when it comes to housing. Despite what longer-term, nationwide trends may suggest, in most of the 50 states, there is at least one city where homes are less expensive today than they were a year ago.
Using historical data from Realtor.com, 24/7 Wall St. identified the city in every state where home prices are actually falling. We reviewed data for over 920 U.S. metro areas, and ranked them on the relative change in median single-family home list prices from June 2024 to June 2025, listing the city in each state where home prices have come down the most. Only metro areas where list prices were not flagged for potential data quality issues were considered. Five states — Alaska, Maine, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, and Vermont — were excluded from the analysis, as none of these states has a city where home prices fell over the last year. Additionally, because Hawaii has only one metro area with available data, the city listed for that state appears on this list by default.
Among the 45 metro areas on this list, median list prices are down anywhere from about 1% to nearly 10% since June of last year. Even though home prices are also down year-over-year in 19 states, in all but one of these places, the relative decline in home prices in the metro area on this list exceeds the comparable statewide decrease. (Here is a look at how Baby Boomers impacted the housing market for younger buyers.)
It is important to note that while home prices are lower in these places now than they were at the same time last year, many of these cities still have relatively expensive housing markets. In 12 cities on this list, median list prices exceed half a million dollars. (Here is a look at the most affordable cities for renters in every state.)
These are the cities in every state where home prices are falling the fastest.
Why It Matters
The median home price in the United States is now $121,000 higher than it was just five years ago — and millions of Americans have been priced out of the market. However, location matters when it comes to housing, and some parts of the country are starting to report substantial decreases in home prices. According to Realtor.com, list prices have fallen considerably in many cities across the United States in the last year.
