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 75206 (Dallas County, Texas) runs from 1977 to 2025 and has risen +1910.6% over that time, from a base of 100 to 2011.

Over the ten years to 2025 the index rose +86.6%, about +6.4% a year: below Dallas County (+97.6%), close to Texas (+88.2%) and close to the national index (+85.0%). The change over 2024–2025 was +1.0%.

By decade, the strongest was the 1990s (+101.1%) and the weakest the 1980s (+48.2%).

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: Dallas County authorised 11,540 housing units in the 12 months to August 2026, 4.3 per 1,000 residents, 40% of them single-family.

FHFA reports each index with a value of 100 in its base period, the first year the area has enough transactions (1977 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 1977 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.

The index tracks price changes for the same homes over time; it does not give a dollar value for any home.
