Chandler racked up another award, ranking as the fourth best midsize (250k to 499,999k population) housing market for buyers. A recent Consumer Affairs study (https://www.consumeraffairs.com/finance/best-housing-markets-for-buyers.html) evaluated cities in housing market competitiveness, affordability, home size and livability. Compared to other midsize and large cities, Chandler is noted as a place of opportunity for young professionals and families seeking to buy a home.

City Government of Chandler, Arizona

We analyzed more than 270 housing markets across America for affordability, competition and quality of life to find where homebuyers fare the best.
