D-FW suburban rental markets surge amid affordable homeownership hurdles
The Dallas-Fort Worth area is experiencing a surge in suburban renters due to a lack of affordable homes and rising homeownership barriers. The metro area has four of the five fastest-growing suburban rental markets in the country. Experts point to high home prices, interest rates, and economic concerns as contributing factors. This trend is also pushing higher-income households into the rental market, increasing competition and potentially squeezing out lower-income renters. Affordable housing advocates are concerned about the disparity in rental growth between Dallas and its suburbs and the implications for the city's economic future.
