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

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

The outer periphery of the Phoenix metro—particularly the far west, southwest, and far north—exhibits the highest concentrations of post-2010 housing construction, with many zip codes exceeding 20–30%, reflecting the rapid outward suburban expansion characteristic of Sun Belt growth patterns. In sharp contrast, the urban core areas around central Phoenix, Tempe, and older portions of Scottsdale and Mesa display notably low percentages (often below 4%), indicating mature, built-out neighborhoods with limited new residential development. Gilbert and Chandler present an interesting mixed pattern, with some zip codes showing very recent construction activity adjacent to others with minimal new building, suggesting uneven infill and remaining pockets of developable land.
