A real, disclosed price spread, genuinely affordable within the Tri-Cities

Kennewick's median price ran $439,000 as of May 2026, $432,000 as a trailing-3-month median, and $410,000 for single-family homes specifically as of July 2026 -- all disclosed rather than reconciled. Prices are up 2.1% YoY, with price-per-square-foot at $246 (up 4.0% YoY).

A genuinely less competitive market

With a 60/100 competitiveness score, 1 offer on average, and homes selling in around 41 days, Kennewick's market runs genuinely less frantic than the tighter, faster-moving markets built alongside this record -- real, practical breathing room for buyers.

Kennewick within the broader Tri-Cities regional market

The combined Tri-Cities region (Kennewick, Pasco, Richland, West Richland) posted a June 2026 median sale price of $445,000 with homes selling in a median of 20 days per regional Realtor association data -- Kennewick's own figures run at or below this regional median, and homes here are typically among the most affordable within the Tri-Cities.

Demand anchor: the broader Tri-Cities regional economy

Kennewick's housing demand is anchored partly by the broader Tri-Cities regional economy -- including Hanford Site cleanup work and PNNL research centered mainly in neighboring Richland -- and partly by Kennewick's own relative affordability within that same metro.
