What stands out · In brief

The short version on homes in Logan

Prices are 20% below their 2023 peak

The typical Logan home peaked at $188K in May 2023 and is worth about $150K now. Across New Mexico, values are at or near their high. Over five years, Logan is down 9.3%. Price trend ↓

Owning can cost less than renting

With 20% down at the calculator’s rate, the typical Logan home runs about $830 a month with tax and insurance. A two-bedroom rents for about $1,340. The hurdle is getting in: the down payment, and a budget at the median income that falls short of the typical home. Can I afford it? ↓

A second-home town

44% of Logan’s homes are seasonal or vacation homes, empty for much of the year. Year-round rentals are scarce: there are 30 renter households. Property taxes ↓

Written from the data on this page. Home values are the Zillow Home Value Index, through September 2026; incomes, rents paid, taxes and ownership come from the Census American Community Survey, which has wide margins in a place this size.
