Over the past 10 years, the ZIP code has averaged roughly 430 residential sales per year, with annual volume varying alongside mortgage rates, available inventory, and the mix of condominium versus detached-home transactions. Detached homes remain the dominant owner-occupied housing choice, generally offering larger lots and more living area, while the condominium segment provides a meaningful lower-maintenance alternative near the Tacoma Mall, medical district, and major transportation corridors; commercial demand is concentrated in medical-office, neighborhood retail, service, and mixed-use sites rather than large industrial facilities. Overall, 98471 tends to trade at a premium to many broader Tacoma submarkets because of its central location, established housing stock, access to hospitals and shopping, and relatively limited supply of well-maintained homes.
