Midwestern suburbs are emerging as the place to be – but house hunters will have to work hard to find an available home in the most popular areas, according to a new Redfin report for January and February this year.

Redfin analyzed listing views for houses by year-over-year growth for 150 of the nation’s biggest metro areas. Five of the 10 zipcodes with the highest number of views were in the Midwest.

Jenson, MI (median sale price $356,500) is near Grand Rapids and has a rural feel, as does Campton Hills and St. Charles, IL (median $335,000) near Elgin. Franklin, WI (median $392,500) is considered the gateway to Milwaukee and is seeing a burst of new construction. Prairie Village and Mission Hills, KS (median $476,500) near Kansas City, MO, offers homes ranging in price from $400,000 to over $10 million. And Lakeville, MN (median $495,000) features good schools, lakes, and an easy commute to Minneapolis.
