The fastest-rising neighborhood in Fort Worth over the last 12 months was Primrose Crossing, where the median price per square foot rose 15.6% to $171, against a citywide change of -1.0%. Diamond Hill - Jarvis (+14.6%) and Ridgmar (+11.4%) were next. We ranked every Fort Worth neighborhood with at least 20 closings in our MLS feed in each of the last two years by the change in median price per square foot, then checked days on market and the share of homes selling above asking to separate real momentum from a few unusual sales. 6 of the top 10 still have a median price below the citywide median of $301,500.

Fort Worth's 10 fastest-rising neighborhoods
Neighborhoods with at least 20 closings in our feed in both windows, ranked by the change in median price per square foot from November 2024 through October 2025 to November 2025 through October 2026. 95 Fort Worth neighborhoods qualified.
| Neighborhood | Closings | Median price per sq ft, Nov 2025 to Oct 2026 | A year earlier | Change | Median sale price | Vs citywide median | Median days on market, now (year earlier) | Share sold above asking, now (year earlier) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Primrose Crossing | 24 | $171 | $148 | +15.6% | $295,000 | -2% | 37 (36) | 21% (23%) |
| Diamond Hill - Jarvis | 44 | $190 | $166 | +14.6% | $224,000 | -26% | 29 (24) | 18% (14%) |
| Ridgmar | 41 | $233 | $209 | +11.4% | $545,000 | +81% | 34 (34) | 17% (8%) |
| Mira Vista | 30 | $333 | $304 | +9.5% | $1,506,250 | +400% | 47 (56) | 10% (4%) |
| Rosemont | 35 | $181 | $165 | +9.3% | $205,000 | -32% | 24 (37) | 11% (17%) |
| Remington Point | 44 | $156 | $144 | +8.2% | $315,500 | +5% | 31 (35) | 18% (21%) |
| Stone Meadow | 34 | $137 | $128 | +7.0% | $312,250 | +4% | 65 (46) | 21% (12%) |
| Historic Stop Six | 33 | $186 | $175 | +6.3% | $295,000 | -2% | 42 (48) | 12% (16%) |
| West Meadowbrook | 46 | $162 | $153 | +6.3% | $222,000 | -26% | 31 (47) | 20% (23%) |
| North Side | 36 | $183 | $173 | +6.2% | $263,450 | -13% | 43 (25) | 11% (14%) |
The table ranks by price per square foot rather than median sale price because price per square foot is less sensitive to which homes happened to sell: a year with more large houses on the market can push the median price up even when nothing got more expensive. Days on market and the share sold above asking show whether buyers are actually competing for the neighborhood. When both improve along with the price, the momentum is real; when they do not, a few large or renovated sales may have moved the number.
Citywide context: how Fort Worth as a whole moved
| Metric | Nov 2025 to Oct 2026 | A year earlier |
|---|---|---|
| Closings analyzed | 6,552 | 6,814 |
| Median price per sq ft | $174 (-1.0%) | $176 |
| Median sale price | $301,500 | $305,000 |
| Median days on market | 33 | 34 |
| Share sold above asking | 18% | 18% |
The top neighborhoods are moving against a falling market: Fort Worth's median price per square foot fell 1.0% to $174, yet all 10 neighborhoods in the table rose. Citywide, homes sold in a median 33 days against 34 a year earlier, and 18% sold above asking against 18%.
Rising and still below the citywide median
| Neighborhood | Median sale price | Vs citywide median | Change in price per sq ft | Share sold above asking |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Primrose Crossing | $295,000 | -2% | +15.6% | 21% |
| Diamond Hill - Jarvis | $224,000 | -26% | +14.6% | 18% |
| Rosemont | $205,000 | -32% | +9.3% | 11% |
| Historic Stop Six | $295,000 | -2% | +6.3% | 12% |
| West Meadowbrook | $222,000 | -26% | +6.3% | 20% |
| North Side | $263,450 | -13% | +6.2% | 11% |
These neighborhoods let a buyer get in below the $301,500 citywide median while prices are still climbing. Rosemont is the lowest-priced entry at $205,000, and Primrose Crossing has the strongest momentum at +15.6%. Bidding is moderate: even in Primrose Crossing, the busiest of these, 21% of homes sold above asking, so most still sold at or below the list price.
What is driving each neighborhood (local commentary)
Fort Worth is a buyer's market citywide, with price per square foot down 1.0% and only 18% of homes selling above asking, but six of the ten fastest-rising neighborhoods are below the $301,500 citywide median. The north side is where the movement is: Diamond Hill - Jarvis (44 closings, $224,000 median, up 14.6% per square foot) and North Side both gained ground, and Rosemont on the near south side combined a 9.3% gain with median days on market falling from 37 to 24. West Meadowbrook on the east side saw the biggest speed change, from 47 days to 31. Ridgmar is the established pick: a $545,000 median, up 11.4% per square foot, with the above-asking share more than doubling from 8% to 17%. Stone Meadow's 7.0% gain came with days on market rising from 46 to 65, so that one is price without momentum.
How to use this list if you are buying in Fort Worth
- Treat price per square foot growth as a screen, not a verdict. Visit the top three, Primrose Crossing, Diamond Hill - Jarvis and Ridgmar, and judge the streets, the homes and the commute for yourself.
- Check whether days on market fell along with the price rise. Rising prices with lengthening days on market usually means a few renovated sales moved the median. In Fort Worth, that applies to Stone Meadow (46 to 65 days), North Side (25 to 43 days) and Diamond Hill - Jarvis (24 to 29 days).
- Compare the neighborhood's median price with the citywide median. The citywide median sale price in Fort Worth was $301,500; a negative figure in the "vs citywide median" column means the neighborhood is still an entry point.
- Pull the last 12 months of closings on the specific streets you like before offering. Neighborhood medians blend very different blocks, and the sales on your street are the comps the seller's agent will use.
- Expect to compete where more than half of homes sell above asking. None of the Fort Worth neighborhoods in this table cleared that bar. Use the share-sold-above-asking column to decide how aggressive the offer needs to be.
Methodology
We looked at closings of single family homes, condos and townhouses in Fort Worth from our MLS feed, closed November 2025 through October 2026, compared with closings from November 2024 through October 2025 (6,552 and 6,814 closings). Price per square foot is the closing price divided by living area; figures are medians. "Share sold above asking" is the share of closings where the sale price exceeded the final list price. Neighborhoods need at least 20 closings in each window to be ranked (95 Fort Worth neighborhoods qualified); neighborhoods with fewer closings are excluded, so some well-known areas do not appear. Sales under $50,000 or over $20,000,000 and price per square foot outside $50 to $5,000 are excluded. Published November 2026.
