regional trend
Area-specific movement
A regional trend is a pattern or tendency observed within a specific geographic area rather than nationally or globally.
The phrase appears in discussions of economic data, fashion, politics, or cultural shifts: Housing prices show a regional trend toward smaller lots in the Southwest.
Regional trends may eventually spread or remain localized.
