Trulia looked at the top 100 largest U.S. markets and chose the top 10 that are poised for growth in 2018 based on:

Strong job growth over the past year — prosperity and opportunity Low vacancy rates — supply doesn’t exceed demand High starter home affordability — first-time buyers have a chance to purchase a home More inbound home searches on Trulia than outbound — how popular the market is A large share of the adult population under 35 — a growing homebuying population

Based on these metrics, here are Trulia’s picks:
