The American housing market has been on fire. Home values in some markets increased by over 30% year over year. As of February, America's hottest market was Phoenix.    One reason home prices have risen over the past two years is that tens of thousands of people have decided to migrate from America's large coastal cities to ones inland. San Francisco and New York have home prices that are two or three times the   national median price   for existing homes  , which has risen to a record of over $375,000. (   These are the 20 most expensive suburbs for home buyers   .)    And while new home building has accelerated, supply chain issues have made building materials more expensive, and shortages have delayed completion of many homes that are under construction or in the planning stages.    Another reason for rising prices is the new mobility of many Americans. The COVID-19 pandemic caused companies to shutter offices for safety reasons. Millions of people have worked from home, and some businesses will not make them come back to traditional offices.    One impetus for home buying last year was the near historic low mortgage   rates -- below 3%. The Federal Reserve's rate increases mean that those mortgage rates are no longer available, and this may dent demand in 2022. Already, existing home sales dipped in March, the National Association of Realtors reported. (   This is the mortgage rate in America every year since 1972   .)    The gold standard of home price research is the   S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller Indices  , which are issued monthly. The figures for February showed that home prices across the country rose 19.8% from the same month last year. Craig J. Lazzara, managing director at S&P DJI, commented, "The National Composite's 19.8% year-over-year change for February was the third-highest   reading in 35 years of history."    The research also looks at price changes in 20 of America's largest metro areas. These increases were uneven in February. To find America's hottest housing market, 24/7 Wall St. reviewed housing prices changes in metro areas from    S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller   's recent release.    The market with the highest increase was Phoenix, where prices in February climbed 32.9% year over year. It is the 33rd consecutive month in which Phoenix records the highest increase in housing prices. It was followed closely by Tampa, Florida, where prices rose 32.6%, and Miami, which had a 29.7% increase in housing prices year over year.    At the far end of the   spectrum, home prices in Washington rose only 11.9% annually.
