Where cranes and apartment buildings are rising, you’ll usually find bustling economic growth—and that’s more true of one ZIP code in Frisco than almost anywhere else in the U.S.
According to a new report by RentCafe, Frisco ZIP code 75034 boasted 5,872 new apartments built from 2018 to 2022 for a total of 14,315 apartments—an increase of 69.5% over what the ZIP code offered in 2017.
That ranks the Frisco ZIP code as the No. 5 hottest apartment construction ZIP code in the U.S.
The only ZIP codes in America to beat out Frisco’s? Washington D.C.’s 20002 placed No. 1, with 7,378 new apartments built from 2018 to 2022. Following it in No. 2 to No. 4 order were the ZIP code right next door, 20002 in Washington, D.C.; 11101 in New York City; and 37203 in Nashville, Tennessee.
The only other Texas city to crack the Top 15 was Houston, whose 77007 ZIP code placed No. 11 with 5,014 new apartments.
Frisco’s hot ZIP code is in the city’s western part
