The two metropolitan areas with the highest value of new residential construction in 2024 were in Texas. Those two areas, Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington and Houston-Pasadena-The Woodlands, were the only ones in the United States where new homes authorized were worth over 17 billion U.S. dollars. Those figures were significantly higher than the following entries in the list, the areas around Phoenix (Arizona) and in New York, where home construction amounted to over ten billion U.S. dollars.
