housing_metro_demand

Pack: housing-intel · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/housing-intel/mcp

Demand + rent-durability signals for a shortlist of US metros in ONE call — population & 5-year growth, renter share, median household income, and unemployment, straight from Census ACS. Deterministic by metro (CBSA-keyed) — NO FRED series-ID guessing. Pass metros (“City, ST”, e.g. the top results from housing_market_screen). This is the Stage-2 “is the demand real?” filter on a yield shortlist — high yield in a shrinking metro is a trap. No API key needed.
