Market data, measured 2026-08-17

Colorado Springs carries more active listings than Denver.

6,885 against 4,862. That is a metro roughly a third of Denver's population carrying about 1.4 times the active inventory.

We measure active listing counts because our software needs them. We are publishing them because nobody else does, and an agent working one of these markets should be able to see the whole picture rather than just their own corner of it.

How this was measured, and what it is not

These are active listings present in our own data as of 2026-08-17, counted per metro. They move daily.

This is not a claim about total market inventory, and we are not going to pretend it is. It is what we can see and measure, published with the date on it so you can judge it. If your own numbers differ, yours are probably closer for your market, and we would genuinely like to hear it.

No projections, no rankings we cannot defend, no forecast. Just the counts and the date.
