What the Numbers Mean for Pierce County Distressed Property Buyers
- Vacancy. About 5.0% of Pierce County's housing units (18,379 homes) were vacant in the 2020–2024 ACS, below the U.S. figure of 10.1%. That count includes homes for rent, for sale, and seasonal homes, so it is a market-wide signal rather than a count of distressed homes; our county list is what identifies the distressed ones.
- Housing age. The median home in Pierce County was built in 1986, close to the U.S. median (1980), so distressed homes here span a typical mix of repair needs.
- Prices. The median home value of $526,600 is 58% above the U.S. median of $332,700, and equals 5.3 times the county's median household income of $99,564. A high price-to-income ratio means any discount to market value is large in dollar terms, which is why wholesalers watch spreads closely in counties like this.
- Tenure. 64.7% of occupied homes in Pierce County are owner-occupied versus 35.3% renter-occupied, close to the national split. Expect a mix of owner-occupant and landlord-owned distress.
- Population trend. Pierce County's population was roughly steady between 2020 and 2025 (+2.7%), so local demand is stable rather than fast-moving.
