Population growth, a critical factor in assessing rental housing demand, increased 0.9% in the U.S. during 2024, the fastest annual rate since 2008. However, growth rates were much higher for many markets, especially those in Texas, Florida, and the Carolinas. As first explored in Arbor’s Top Markets for Multifamily Investment Report Spring 2025, we dive deeper into metro-level population growth in markets with at least 500,000 residents to find the nation’s top markets for rental housing demand growth.

Arbor’s Football Frenzy Contest sponsored by Arbor Realty Trust, Inc. (“Arbor”) No Purchase Necessary.
TO ENTER: Go to arbor.pooltracker.com/pickem. You will arrive at the ‘‘Registration’ page for Arbor’s Football Frenzy Contest (the “Contest”) where you will fill in your username, password, contact information, Arbor sales representative and qualitative questions. Each week you must enter your weekly picks of winners in each of the National Football League (“NFL”) match-ups against the point spread. You must follow Pool Tracker’s official rules regarding deadlines, pick submissions and other details for the contest. One entry per person.
Each week during the 2024/2025 NFL season, there will be one Weekly Top Performer Prize winner of a $150 gift card, or a comparable item selected by Arbor in its sole discretion, given to the participant with the most total wins for the current week only. In the event of a tie, the winner will be selected based on their numerical accuracy for predicting the final total score of that week’s Monday Night Football Game. In the event that multiple players are tied for the same number of wins and the exact same tie breaker prediction, then a time stamp of which player had first entered their picks will be used to determine the winner. If, for any reason, more prizes are available or claimed than the stated number for the Weekly Top Performer Prize, or further ties cannot be resolved via stated contest rules, Arbor reserves the right to randomly draw winners from the pool of eligible prize winners. Deadline for contest entry is September 5, 2024 at 8:19 pm EDT. Weekly Prize winners will be named at the conclusion of each week’s schedule of NFL games on or about each Tuesday from September 10, 2024 through January 5, 2025. The winners will be notified by e-mail, mail and/or phone approximately one week after the end of the contest.
