Housing Vacancy Rate by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Minneapolis Metro

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Housing vacancy rates across the Minneapolis metro area are notably elevated in the urban core zip codes surrounding downtown Minneapolis, where several zones reach 8–12% or higher, likely reflecting concentrations of rental and multifamily housing stock. Suburban communities such as Plymouth, Maple Grove, Woodbury, and Eden Prairie consistently display lower vacancy rates in the 0–4% range, underscoring tighter owner-occupied housing markets on the metro periphery. A few small pockets near St. Paul and east of Minneapolis show anomalously high rates approaching 12–15%, suggesting localized conditions such as new construction absorption or transitional neighborhood dynamics.
