The defining feature is variance. A build range from 1901 to 2007 means you can find genuinely historic structures a few doors from late-model construction, and the median year built of 1973 puts the center of gravity in solidly mid-century territory. Expect to underwrite each property individually — roof, systems, and updates will drive value far more than square footage alone, even with a median footprint around 2,142 square feet.

The high homestead share, near 79 percent, signals owners who stay put. That keeps the standing inventory low and the turnover slow. When something lists, the question is less 'what does the neighborhood cost' and more 'what shape is this specific house in and how does the lot compare.' Both sides should price and offer off condition, not off a blended average.

In a market this small and this varied, comps are scarce and easy to misread. We underwrite each home on condition, systems, and lot rather than a neighborhood average, and we know how to read a thin, slow-turning inventory so buyers move decisively and sellers price to the house they actually own.

Confirm the current HOA dues, exactly what they cover, and any CDD bond or special assessment for a specific address before you offer.
