Housing Owner-Occupied % of Units, by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Phoenix Metro

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Owner-occupancy rates in the Phoenix metro follow a clear core-periphery gradient, with the lowest concentrations (below 50%) clustered tightly in central Phoenix, Tempe, and parts of downtown Scottsdale, likely reflecting higher-density rental housing near employment centers and universities. Suburban and exurban zip codes to the north, west, and southeast—particularly in areas around Gilbert, the far northwest Valley, and the outer edges of Mesa—consistently exceed 80% owner-occupancy, indicating predominantly single-family residential development. Glendale and Chandler display notable internal variation, with zip codes closer to the urban core trending significantly lower than their outward-facing counterparts.
