- Stanley Martin will offer seven individual home designs with multiple options/upgrades within the community.

The report takes a look at the nation’s 100 largest cities, and then ranks them based on homeownership affordability in terms of the average family. For June, Raleigh comes in at number 27 on the list, which is a 13-spot jump from its previous ranking.
