ZIP 78657 — Cottonwood Shores
The 78657 housing market is characterized by low competition and high days on market, reflecting a niche resort-oriented environment. While median prices have seen a year-over-year increase, the high inventory relative to sales volume suggests a slow-moving market for sellers. Many specific metrics such as tax history and detailed utility providers are not determinable at the ZIP level.
This area is primarily suited for retirees and second-home buyers given the older median age and resort-style nature of Horseshoe Bay.
Median prices moved up 11.2% year over year.
Homes spend a median of 184 days on market with 54.8 months of supply — a slower-moving market.
5% of listings have cut prices · homes sell at 94.7% of asking — demand is running ahead of supply.
no recorded foreclosure-ledger notices (0.0 per 10,000 residents) · unemployment 3.5% · poverty 5.0% — a stable, low-distress profile.
