Housing % of Units Built Since 2010, by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Arkansas

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Northwest Arkansas zip codes—particularly in the Benton and Washington County corridor—display consistently elevated shares of housing built since 2010, with several zones exceeding 20–30%, reflecting the region's sustained population and economic growth driven by major corporate headquarters. Central Arkansas around the Little Rock metro shows a more mixed pattern, with pockets of newer construction interspersed among older housing stock, while the eastern Delta region and parts of southern Arkansas are dominated by dark blue and purple tones indicating minimal new construction, often below 4%. The starkest contrast runs diagonally from the booming northwest to the economically stagnant southeast, underscoring a persistent geographic divide in development activity across the state.
