Activity Index by Zip Code for the Austin Area
This page tracks the Activity Index for Austin-area zip codes, giving buyers, sellers, and investors a clear view of where homes are selling faster and where the market is slowing. The Activity Index measures real-time demand across 75 Austin-area zip codes, helping you understand market momentum at a local, neighborhood-level.
The Activity Index is calculated using a simple formula: Pending Listings divided by (Active + Pending Listings). This shows how quickly homes are going under contract relative to available supply. Higher values signal stronger buyer demand and faster absorption, while lower values point to slower sales and increased negotiating leverage for buyers.
In general, an Activity Index above 25 percent reflects a strong market, roughly equivalent to four months of inventory. Lower readings indicate softer conditions, longer days on market, and more price sensitivity. This makes the Activity Index one of the most practical tools for comparing zip codes across the Austin real estate market.
All sold data shown for each zip code is based on the most recent 90 days of activity, ensuring the index reflects current market conditions rather than outdated trends.
Use this page to identify high-demand Austin zip codes, track shifts in buyer behavior, and make more informed decisions whether you are buying, selling, or pricing a home.
