Far from the big cities and coastal enclaves, there are still some affordable metros for Americans to call home.
Sky-high listing prices and elevated mortgage rates are leaving prospective home-buyers across the country reluctant to pull the trigger, but a new round-up by Realtor.com identified ten metros where listing prices in October were relatively affordable.
Median listing prices for U.S. homes reached a median of $424,000 last month, but temperatures stayed cool in Pottsville, Pennsylvania.
Homes in the small city, located 50 miles from Allentown, listed for a median price of $159,450 in October. Its population of roughly 13,300 residents enjoy a pedestrian-friendly downtown and easy access to Yuengling Brewery, the country’s oldest brewery in operation.
