Ok, here we are: deep into the sweltering, extended days and steamy nights of midsummer. So what’s better then (briefly, blissfully) conquering the heat with a reviving dive into a great pool? Diving into a great pool in your very own backyard, of course.
It got us thinking: Where would we be most likely to find a home in the U.S. that’s pool-party ready? So, our data team took a deep plunge into millions of public property records of single-family homes to come up with a ranking of the top 10 medium-to-large cities with the highest percentage of backyard pools.
It’s no tremendous surprise that most of the cities with the biggest pool scenes are in Florida and Arizona, two of the hottest U.S. states.
