A growing north-metro town

Redfin describes the Erie housing market as somewhat competitive. In March 2026, the median sale price for Erie overall was about $768,000, up 8.9 percent year over year, and homes sold in around 47 days on average compared with 70 days a year earlier.
The citywide median sale price per square foot was about $264, up 6.7 percent year over year. There were 99 homes sold in March 2026, up from 98 a year earlier. ZIP-level data for 80516 (which covers much of Erie) shows a somewhat competitive market with a January 2026 median of about $719,000, essentially flat (down 0.14 percent) year over year, and median price per square foot around $237, up 8.2 percent year over year. In that period, homes in 80516 sold in about 80 days on average compared with 62 days a year earlier, with 151 homes sold over the prior 12 months vs. 169 the year before.
Within Erie, Old Town Erie has moved differently: in early-2026 snapshots, medians around the mid-$400Ks to mid-$400Ks+ were down roughly 10–24 percent year over year while price-per-foot rose to the mid-$300s, and days-on-market improved — showing how older cores can re-price even as newer master-planned areas remain expensive.
“Erie feels like a higher-priced, still-growing alternative to core Boulder — with more space and newer homes.”
