Discover the Award-Winning Coldwell Banker Move Meter®

Thinking about moving — whether across town or across the country — comes with a lot of big questions. Will your cost of living change? Are home prices higher or lower? What about jobs, schools, or your overall lifestyle?

To help answer those questions, Coldwell Banker developed an exclusive, award-winning tool called the Move Meter®. Named the #1 real estate tool, it lets you instantly compare two locations side by side, using real data to show how they stack up.

What Is the Move Meter®?

The Coldwell Banker Move Meter® is a free, one-of-a-kind online tool that helps you compare two cities or ZIP codes across thousands of data points — in fact, it analyzes over 40,000 locations using hundreds of data sources to give you a clear picture of how life in one place compares to another.

Each comparison compares 13 different key categories such as:

• Housing Affordability – average home prices, appreciation rates, and property taxes
• Cost of Living – utilities, groceries, transportation, and other everyday expenses
• Job Market Strength – median income, employment growth, and local opportunities
• Quality of Life – schools, amenities, weather, and commute times

After entering your “from” and “to” locations, the Move Meter® gives you a Move Score and an easy-to-read side-by-side breakdown showing where each place shines — and where trade-offs may exist.

How to Use the Move Meter®

Using the Move Meter® only takes a minute:

1. Visit coldwellbankernwa.com/move-meter.
2. Enter your current city or ZIP code.
3. Enter the city or area you’re thinking about moving to — for example, Harrison, AR, Branson, MO, or Bentonville, AR.
4. Click “Compare.”
5. Review your Move Score and explore the details on housing, affordability, jobs, and quality of life.

It’s that simple — and it’s a great starting point before visiting homes or setting a relocation budget.
