Spectrum News writes, "some of the top real estate markets in the nation are in the Lone Star State, according to a recent study.

The data comes from WalletHub, which used metrics like real-estate market rank, affordability and economic environment to rank U.S. cities.

In the top 10 alone are five Dallas-Fort Worth area cities, including McKinney, north of Dallas, with a total score of 72.33; Richardson, a Dallas suburb, with a score of 68.11; Denton, with 66.52; and Allen with a score of 66.35.

Making the top 20 were Fort Worth and Austin, with close scores of 65.31 and 65.13, respectively.

“Current home prices are extremely important, but there’s much more that you need to look at when determining the health of a city’s real estate market. Factors like the cost of living, the potential for the value of homes to increase, the availability of recently-built homes and the quality of the city’s job market are all important to consider in conjunction with asking prices and interest rates. The best cities may not always be the cheapest, but they offer excellent housing options and long-term stability,” said Chip Lupo, WalletHub analyst."
