South Atlantic ZIP codes benefit from sustained migration inflows, but hyperlocal performance varies widely between neighborhoods.

Within the South Atlantic, ZIP code 28523's PropertyIQ Score of 27 runs below the South Atlantic norm.

The PropertyIQ Score for 28523, Cove City, NC is built from four inputs measured at the ZIP-code level: Zillow home-value momentum over twelve months, Zillow home-value momentum over three months, the median days listings spend on the market (Realtor.com), and the share of listings with a price cut (Realtor.com). The score runs on a 1 to 99 scale computed across all ZIP codes nationally and calibrated so 50 equals the state average, so a score above 50 points to a micro-market positioned to outperform its state.
