What is the biggest real estate market according to Google?

Image via CrunchBaseWant to know real estate markets that have the biggest potential for growth? How about looking at state-by-state search volumes in Google! The Google Adwords Keywords Tool gives semi-accurate search volumes for any keyword you wish to know more about. In this situation I used [<insert state> real estate] as my keywords. I've listed the real estate search volumes by each 50 state in comparison to other metrics like population and size. The results are rather surprising.
