Method

Count of Google Maps listings in the real estate agency and real estate agent categories in each state, divided by the state's average monthly active listings on Realtor.com.

Sources
Google Maps business listings for real estate agents and brokerages, collected October 2026Realtor.com monthly listing inventory data (median days on market, listing prices, price cuts, active listings), all states, October 2025 to September 2026
Limits

Google Maps listings include teams, offices and individual agents, and not every licensed agent has one, so this is a measure of visible competition rather than a count of licensees. Active listings are a monthly average.
