Why Home Prices Everywhere Look More and More Like California
About this episode
Sun Belt cities like Phoenix, Miami, and Dallas were once havens for affordable housing—now they’re facing price surges that rival coastal metros. In this episode, we break down why home prices are rising fastest in the very places known for loose regulations and sprawl. The culprit? A new wave of NIMBYism, restrictive zoning laws, and the collapse of the suburban expansion model. From failed apartment projects in Texas to developers fleeing Arizona, we explore how the same anti-growth forces that stifled coastal cities are now spreading inland—and what that means for the future of housing in America.
