Las Vegas, Phoenix and Tampa led the way reporting the largest annual gains among the 20 cities. Las Vegas posted an 8.2% year-over-year price increase, followed by Phoenix with a 6.1% gain and Tampa at 5.3%.

Four of the 20 cities reported greater price increases in the year ending March 2019 versus the year ending February 2019.
