ome prices in northern and southern Alabama are skyrocketing, driven by the influx of new residents drawn to tech industries and coastal properties. According to Jeremy Walker of the Alabama Association of Realtors, "the growth is explosive" and self-sustaining. Since 2020, statewide home values have surged 36%, from approximately $172,000 in June 2020 to around $234,000 in June 2025, based on Zillow data analyzed by AL.com. However, this growth varies significantly across counties.
