Over the recorded series, Rock Creek’s median sold price moved from $214,500 (2012) to $382,500 (12 months ending 2026-08-02) — +78% over that span, with every year’s figure from recorded closings, not a model.
The recorded series starts in 2012 at $214,500. The 2020–22 run-up did what it did everywhere — Rock Creek’s median moved +87% from 2019 to 2022. Against the 2022 peak of $477,000, the current median stands at -20%. Annual sales volume here has ranged from 0 to 9 closings a year (10-yr average 5.6). Small-community medians move in steps, not curves — a handful of unusual sales can swing a year, which is why the sales count sits next to every figure in the table above.
What actually trades here: 100% single family residence, with a median of 1,947 sq ft and a median price per square foot of $203 in the current window. Price-per-square-foot is the cleaner yardstick when comparing your home to the medians — it corrects for the size mix in any given year.
Demand check: 25% of Rock Creek’s listings are under contract, against 23% for ZIP 32605 and 24% for Alachua County as a whole — the community is absorbing faster than its surroundings. Since 2004, 41 Rock Creek listings were withdrawn, canceled, or expired without selling — overpricing is the recurring cause statewide. Over the recorded years, an average of 16% of Rock Creek listings ended without selling (withdrawn/canceled/expired); in 2026 that rate was 0%. Momentum’s market-heat index for Rock Creek reads 54/100 (computed from DOM, sale-to-list, and absorption; 2020–21 peaked in the 70s here).
Cash bought 50% of recorded Rock Creek sales in the window ending 2026-06 (3 of 6) — a fact worth knowing before assuming every buyer needs an appraisal to close. For buyers, the same table reads the other way: the sold medians above are what the market has actually been paying — an asking price meaningfully above the recent closed record, in a community absorbing at the rates shown, is an opening position, not a value.
The pattern in the statewide failure data applies here too: homes priced against the latest closed sales sell; homes priced against hope join the 201,552 that didn’t. The table above is the closed-sale record to price against.
