Much of the housing stock in Andover was built relatively recently. The construction of new real estate can often be taken as an indication that the local Andover economy is robust, and that jobs or other amenities are attracting an influx of new residents.

Andover real estate is some of the most expensive in Kansas, although Andover house values don't compare to the most expensive real estate in the U.S.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 8.25% of the workforce. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce this is high compared to the rest of the county. These workers are often telecommuters who work in knowledge-based, white-collar professions. For example, Silicon Valley has large numbers of people who telecommute. Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.

Many people own their own single-family homes, providing areas for children to play and stability in the community. Finally, Andover’s overall crime rate is lower than average for the country.
