A new ranking of America’s fastest-growing affordable suburbs is giving a better idea of just how influential the Phoenix Metro is on the national stage. Four Metro Phoenix suburbs — Maricopa (#9), Buckeye (#15), San Tan Valley (#16), and Goodyear (#26) — rank among the fastest-growing and most affordable suburbs with home values under $500,000.

Using data from Zillow and the U.S. Census Bureau, the study highlights suburbs with strong population growth and home values under $500,000. States like Texas dominated the list, but these four Phoenix towns stand out.
