Why is so much apartment construction happening in Texas?
Texas leads the nation in apartment construction because of sustained population and job growth, relatively permissive zoning in its major metros, and developable land at the suburban edges of Austin, Dallas–Fort Worth and Houston. The scale is visible in the permit record — the 294 active multifamily developments Zabalist tracks represent roughly $5.8B of in-flight construction across the state.
These figures are derived from construction filings registered with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation. See our data sources for methodology and provenance.
