It's made with @svelte.dev which is the reason it's so ~speedy~ 🙏 I'll write a post on how we built this at a later date.

New features have been added as well!
1. The ability to compare counties with a similar number of households directly on county pages.
2. Seeing detailed monthly data values by hovering over the bars in charts.

The data I'm using form Realtor(dot)com goes back to July 2016 at the county level, so there is a bit more I can show. It would be interesting to get more pre-pandemic data in there.

Thanks for asking! Pink/red is meant to identify "negative" outcomes for homebuyers like higher prices or fewer homes on the market. Green means lower prices or more inventory. I can add an explanation about that since it is a little confusing being the opposite for those two metrics.

Thanks! More to come with it. I’m glad it’s helpful

It’s a work in progress, so I’d love any feedback on what’s helpful, what’s missing, or any bugs you find. Reach out here or contribute.

Thanks, Francine!! You’re the best

Thanks, Nathaniel! It couldn’t have happened without a great project manager like you.

I remember sitting in J-School as a senior when a group of us were in front of computers, refreshing the browser, waiting for the brand new FiveThirtyEight site to launch in 2014. It was then that working there became a dream of mine, and I'm grateful for the year I had to live out that dream.
