Here is a nice report of statistics on the useful urban core housing market data and geospatial maps. The urban core as this report defines it is Cuming to Leavenworth, 35th in CB to 48th in Omaha. A couple things I saw was that the urban core's vacancy rate was better, though slightly, than the city and MSA. Council Bluff's side is near 1% vacany, which seems like more Riverfront housing was needed yesterday (the spike is when the River's Edge Broadmoor was completed). The owner occupied versus renter occupied difference is really wide in the urban core. Maybe more owner occupied units are needed. Interestingly, even though household median income is significantly lower in the urban core, cost burden is basically the same as with the rest of the City.

Interesting data and report from the Omaha Chamber..

I was particularly interested in the 2022 population estimates the Chamber is using from ESRI (ESRI 2022) which shows Omaha’s 2022 Metropolitan population at 988,185 (as opposed to 977,000 which is the 2022 estimate from the US Census). Also, the estimate data from ESRI has indicated from 2010 through 2022, Omaha’s metro average annual growth rate is 1.1%. Applying that annual growth rate to Omaha’s metropolitan population estimate for 2023, would place the metro at 999,055- less than 1000 away from hitting the 1 million population milestone..

It’s funny, I was having dinner Wednesday night with our Grow Omaha friend Jeff Beals, and I told him I believed right now, Omaha’s metro was at the 1 million population mark.. These estimates used by the Omaha Chamber, imo, are much more aligned with a more accurate population estimate than what we’ve been getting, especially the last 2 years, from our friends in Washington DC..

Like I stated in a post a few days back, it’ll be interesting to see if the US Census makes any estimate course correction with the Omaha MSA for 2023…

Nice info and I also agree. The estimates used by the Chamber from ESRI look to be more aligned with the actual Omaha area growth rate than these US Census estimates from the last couple of years.
