Louisiana Real Estate Market Analysis
The Louisiana housing market offers investors and homebuyers a diverse range of opportunities across metro areas, counties, and communities at every price point. The PropertyIQ Score rates every market in Louisiana by combining Zillow price momentum over 3 and 12 months with Realtor.com market-flow signals — how fast homes sell and how often sellers cut prices — to show how each market is positioned to outperform or lag the state over the next three years.
Louisiana's housing market is shaped by its unique cultural geography — New Orleans remains a globally recognized destination market with distinct tourist economy dynamics, while Baton Rouge's petrochemical and state government employment drives more traditional residential demand. PropertyIQ specifically models Louisiana's flood insurance requirements and climate risk factors, which materially affect affordability and net investor returns in coastal parishes.
View the full PropertyIQ dashboard for any Louisiana market — including its PropertyIQ Score, updated monthly, and the price-momentum and market-flow signals behind it. Compare Louisiana markets against their state benchmark or against each other to identify opportunities aligned with your investment strategy.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many housing markets does PropertyIQ track in Louisiana?
PropertyIQ currently tracks 18 metro areas and 64 counties in Louisiana, each with its own PropertyIQ Score, home value trend, and days on market reading, refreshed monthly.
What does a PropertyIQ Score of 50 mean for a Louisiana market?
A score of 50 marks Louisiana's own state average demand momentum. PropertyIQ computes scores nationally across every US market, then calibrates the scale so a Louisiana market is read against Louisiana's own typical momentum rather than the national average. A market scoring above 50 is positioned to outperform the Louisiana average over the next three years, while one below 50 is positioned to lag it.
Where can I find ZIP code level housing data for Louisiana?
Every metro area and county listed on this page links through to its own ZIP codes, and each ZIP has its own market page with home value, rent, and days on market data. Start from a Louisiana metro or county below, then drill into ZIP codes for the most localized data available.
What data sources does PropertyIQ use for Louisiana market data, and how often is it updated?
PropertyIQ ingests fresh data every month from Zillow home values, Realtor.com days on market and price cut activity, Redfin, the US Census Bureau, FRED, the Bureau of Labor Statistics, and the Bureau of Economic Analysis. Every metro, county, and ZIP page for Louisiana shows a last updated date, and PropertyIQ Scores are recomputed monthly once that new source data lands.
Which Louisiana metro area has the strongest housing demand right now?
As of the latest monthly refresh, DeRidder, LA has the highest PropertyIQ Score among Louisiana metro areas, indicating the strongest demand momentum in the state relative to its own history.
