ZIP 40997 — Knox County, Kentucky

Not ranked — here's why: Over 65% of homes here are absentee-owned. That pattern usually means a vacation or seasonal market — corporate buying here mostly reflects short-term rentals, not the buy-and-hold or flip investing our rankings are built to show. So we show the counts but keep this ZIP out of the rankings.

This ZIP sits in the London, KY microarea — see the whole market's numbers, county by county.
