case_shiller_metro_compare
Pack: housing-intel · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/housing-intel/mcp
Compare Case-Shiller home price indices across multiple US metros in one call (the 20-city composite). For each metro returns latest level, 3-month change, 12-month change, all-time peak, drawdown from peak, and a softening flag. Output also ranks metros softest → strongest. Use for “which metros are softening”, “Case-Shiller for [list of cities]”, “compare housing prices in X, Y, Z” queries — picks the right per-metro FRED series IDs (DNXRSA, PHXRSA, TPXRSA, etc.) so callers don’t have to. Available metros: Atlanta, Boston, Charlotte, Chicago, Cleveland, Dallas, Denver, Detroit, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Miami, Minneapolis, New York, Phoenix, Portland, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle, Tampa, Washington DC.
