Housing Vacancy Rate by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Arizona

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Rural and peripheral zip codes across northern, eastern, and western Arizona exhibit the highest housing vacancy rates, frequently exceeding 20–30%, consistent with seasonal-use properties, tribal lands, and sparsely populated areas. The Phoenix metropolitan core displays a stark contrast, with densely clustered zip codes in the 0–4% range indicating tight housing occupancy, while surrounding suburban and exurban zones transition to moderate 8–12% vacancy rates. Tucson follows a similar but less pronounced pattern, with low-vacancy urban zip codes ringed by higher-vacancy areas, particularly to the south and southeast near the U.S.–Mexico border.
