15122, West Mifflin, PA

West Mifflin, Pennsylvania is located in the 15122 zip code. Home equity and home prices in this zip code have seen a significant increase over the past few years. In 2015, the median home value was $161,500. This increased to $187,500 by 2016 and reached a record high of $236,000 in 2017. The current median home value is $248,000 as of August 2018.

There are several factors that have contributed to the increase in home values in West Mifflin. First and foremost is the strong economy. Over the past few years, West Mifflin has seen steady job growth which has led to an influx of new residents into the area. Additionally, West Mifflin has been able to maintain its population density while other areas have seen their populations decline due to migration or gentrification. This has resulted in a limited supply of homes for sale and thus higher demand for properties within this zip code.

Another contributing factor to the increase in home values is West Mifflin's proximity to Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh is one of America's most prosperous cities and as such has a large number of people looking for homes within commuting distance of work. Additionally, Pittsburgh has been experiencing rapid population growth which means that there are more people looking for homes than ever before. As a result, prices within close proximity to Pittsburgh have also increased significantly over recent years.

Despite these factors, not everyone living in West Mifflin benefits from these increases in home values – particularly those who do not own property or who do not reside within close proximity to downtown Pittsburgh or other major employment centers."
