Beaumont, TX Market Analysis
Market Overview
Beaumont’s housing market earns a PropertyIQ Score of 76 out of 100, indicating moderately positive conditions. The score is supported by top drivers including 12-month home value momentum of 7.92%, 3-month home value momentum of 1.11%, median days on market of 60, and a share of listings with a price cut of 18.2%. The median home value of $188,313 is about $111,000 below the Texas state average of $299,367. At the same time, the rent index of $1,283 is only slightly below the state average of $1,339, so rental costs are closer to statewide norms than home prices are.
Compared with state benchmarks, the economic picture is mixed. Beaumont’s unemployment rate of 5.4% is above the state average of 4.5%, and median household income of $65,245 is below the state average of $76,292. However, because the home value gap is much larger than the income gap, local housing looks more affordable relative to local incomes than the statewide average. With 1,300 homes for sale and a median 60 days on market, the market is moving at a measured pace rather than an extreme seller’s pace. Population growth is listed as N/A, which leaves a key demand-side signal unavailable.
Key Trends
Price movement is positive but uneven. The 12-month home value momentum of 7.92% is the strongest score driver, while the 3-month momentum of 1.11% is lower but still positive. The key metrics list the home value year-over-year change as $1, essentially flat in dollar terms. That combination suggests near-term momentum exists, but the annual dollar change remains minimal.
Inventory and pricing behavior point to a balanced market. With 1,300 homes for sale and a median of 60 days on market, homes are not moving at an extremely fast pace. The share of listings with a price cut
