One click takes you from the nation to a street

Start at the state or county choropleth, click to drill: state → county → ZIP → H3 hex → individual listing pins at street zoom, with a breadcrumb to climb back up. Hexes extrude to 3D where height is the listing count. Drop a radius of 1, 3 or 5 miles anywhere and the panel recomputes from the listings inside the circle, with the enclosing ZIP and county’s LandPortal numbers beside them.

Acreage picks the LandPortal numbers; every other filter cuts our listings

The acreage bands are the one filter LandPortal sees: they choose which LandPortal bands combine, so the LP figures change with them. Status, listing-date window, $ per acre and asking-price range narrow only our own listings, and the LandPortal figures stay put. The Statistic menu recolours the map by LP Absorption Rate, LP Sell-through, LP Months of Supply, LP Sales, LP Avg DOM, LP median $/ac, Absorption Score, Contract Absorption, Median DOM, Median $/ac, Active inventory or Under contract. Rankings list the top and bottom units for the current view.

Two absorption measures, each defined where it is shown

LP Absorption Rate
sold in the trailing 12 months ÷ (sold + current active)
LP Sell-through
sold ÷ current active
LP Months of Supply
current active ÷ (sold ÷ (365 ÷ 30))
Contract Absorption
under contract ÷ (active + under contract), from our own listings

What the data covers, and what it does not

  1. Sold statistics are LandPortal’s. Trailing 12 months before each scrape (latest Oct 1, 2026), at county, ZIP and state level, for 2–5, 5–10, 10–20, 20–50 acre land. ZIP rows exist for GA, NC, SC, TN, TX only; the two middle bands exist only there.
  2. Our listings are LandSearch / LandWatch on-market land. 175,110 listings as of Sep 13, 2026, placed by point-in-polygon; they drive the hexes, pins, radius circles and Contract Absorption.
  3. County recorded sales cover 3 counties. Chatham NC, Union NC and Sevier TN (complete through Aug 31, 2026, Sep 30, 2026 and Aug 31, 2026); They give County absorption (monthly), county months of supply and Sold points at street level for 5–640 ac land; everywhere else sold figures are LandPortal aggregates, never individual sales.
