The ten most active communities by recorded closings — the full four-way ranking is on the data-ranked neighborhoods page.
Georgia homeownership carries lines beyond the price: county property taxes set from the assessed value (with a homestead exemption you must apply for), HOA dues in most newer communities, and homeowners insurance that varies by county. Budget from the county millage and the community’s HOA schedule, not from what the seller was paying. How Georgia property taxes and the homestead exemption work →
The medians above are the anchor for St. Simons Island: they are recorded closings, not asking prices, so they show what buyers actually paid over the trailing year. Negotiating room follows days on market and months of supply, both printed with each community.
Across 18 St. Simons Island communities with meaningful sales volume, community median sold prices run from about $425,000 to $2,235,000 (10th-90th percentile), with the typical community at $771,500 - from recorded MLS closings, refreshed as the index rebuilds. Every community's own median is on its linked page.
Three data points beyond the home price: homeowners insurance varies by county (and fell in 51 of 67 Florida counties in 2026); many newer communities carry CDD assessments of $1,300-$4,200+/yr on the tax bill; and your property tax resets to your purchase price rather than inheriting the seller's capped bill. This page links verified tables for each.
