Among metro areas, the D.C. region easily ranks in the top 10 for total residential real estate value, but has slipped one spot to sixth place this year, overtaken by Miami, which jumped from ninth place in 2022 to fifth place this year.
New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Boston round out the top five by total housing value.
