Aledo tops the board at $3,350; Weatherford anchors it at $1,795. That is a $1,555/mo swing inside one commute.
Keller leases in a median 24 days; Eagle Mountain Lake takes 39. Fast zones rarely need a discount to fill. Slow zones have to be priced right on day one, because no traffic is coming to save a miss.
North Fort Worth and Haslet: above-median rent sitting on a below-median $/sq ft. Near-premium rent at a mid-tier buy-in is the gap that makes rental math work, and most zones do not have it.
Single-family, zip-level medians. Rent and days-to-lease from RentCast; one zip per zone to match the map. Pulled jul 8, 2026. These are zone medians, not your address. Want the street-level read on a specific house? The zone read is free.
