For the second year in a row, Flagler County, Fla., had the highest rate of growth in the number of housing units of any county in the nation, according to U.S. Census Bureau estimates released today.
The estimates cover July 1, 2004, to July 1, 2005 and show that Flagler’s housing stock increased by 14.8 percent, or more than 5,000 units. Flagler had added more than 4,000 housing units a year earlier. Three other Florida counties made the top 10 with the highest rate of growth in housing stock: Sumter (ranking second), Osceola (fourth) and St. Lucie (ninth). The remainder of the top 10 consisted of Pinal, Ariz. (third); Franklin, Wash. (fifth); Culpeper, Va. (sixth); Washington, Utah (seventh); Kendall, Ill. (eighth); and Rockwall, Texas (10th).

The city slogan for St. George, Utah, is “Simply Gorgeous!” Many seem to agree because the former farming community nestled in the Rockies is the nation’s fastest-growing metro area between April 1, 2000, and July 1, 2005. Palm Coast, Fla. — located south of Jacksonville on the Atlantic Ocean — is the fastest-growing micro area.
