IE Business Daily Business news for the Inland Empire.
The Inland Empire has been named among the top 30 places in the United States for millennial veterans to buy a home.
The two-county region ranked 25th, below Houston and above Kansas City in the survey by Veterans United Home Loans in Columbia, Mo., one of the largest Veterans Administration’s home lenders.
Veterans United compared the loans it issued to millennials in 2018 to the number of loans it issued to that market sector in 2015.
Any veteran or service member born between 1981 and 1996 was defined as a millennial. To be included in the study, a metropolitan area needed at least 75 loans to have been made to millennials in those two years.
Ten of the top 40 markets were in three states: four in Texas, three in Georgia and three in Florida. San Diego-Carlsbad and Los Angeles-Long Beach ranked 20th and 30th, respectively, according to the survey.
