FHFA notes: The FHFA HPI is a broad measure of the movement of single-family house prices. The FHFA HPI is a weighted, repeat-sales index, meaning that it measures average price changes in repeat sales or refinancings on the same properties. FHFA describes its ZIP code indexes as developmental: they may be revised as new data arrive or methods change, and the index does not give a dollar value for any home.
The federal house price index for ZIP 70657 (Beauregard Parish, Louisiana) runs from 2001 to 2024 and has risen +98.7% over that time, from a base of 100 to 199. FHFA's most recent value for this area is for 2024, so every span here ends in 2024.
Over the ten years to 2024 the index rose +24.4%, about +2.2% a year: below Beauregard Parish (+37.1%), well below Louisiana (+39.7%) and well below the national index (+87.9%). The change over 2023–2024 was +2.9%.
The index did not fall 5% or more from a peak between 2006 and 2012, which is unusual; small samples in a ZIP code can also mask movements.
Building activity is measured at county level: Beauregard Parish authorised 93 housing units in the 12 months to August 2026, 2.5 per 1,000 residents, 98% of them single-family.

Every column uses FHFA's annual all-transactions index family and the same start and end years, so the figures are directly comparable. A dash means the level has no index for that span.
Decade by decade
| Decade | Change | United States | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2010s (2010–2020) | +25.2% | +35.5% | |
| 2020s so far (2020–2024) | +11.1% | +42.9% |
FHFA reports each index with a value of 100 in its base period, the first year the area has enough transactions (2001 here). A decade's change is the index at the end of the decade divided by the index at the start, so it does not depend on the base year; the United States column covers the same years. Decades before 2001 are not shown.

Where does the index for this ZIP come from?
From the Federal Housing Finance Agency's annual five-digit ZIP code house price index (all-transactions), last updated March 31, 2026. FHFA labels the ZIP-level indexes developmental: they are calibrated on appraisal values and sales prices for mortgages bought or guaranteed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and may be revised. The index tracks price changes for the same homes over time; it does not give a dollar value for any home.
