The Republican tax bill passed Congress on Wednesday, and President Donald Trump signed it into law on Friday.

National home prices are expected to take a hit under tax reform. The impact is most severe for high-priced homes, especially in parts of the country where a greater number of people itemize their taxes.

But, according to new data from Moody's Analytics, housing markets in some rural areas of the country might see a small boost.

Below are the counties that are expected to see home prices rise by at least 1% between now and summer 2019, as a result of tax reform, according to research from Moody's Analytics. They are located in Colorado, North and South Dakota, Texas, Alaska, Montana, and Nebraska.

We also pulled median home prices, median rent prices, and median household incomes for many of these counties, based on recent Census data.
