The build range is the headline fact: homes dating from 1930 through 2006, with the midpoint at 1962. That span means mechanical systems, roofs, and finishes vary enormously house to house. The right move here is to underwrite each property on its own merits - inspection first, assumptions never - because the median year tells you the neighborhood skews older, not what any single home has had done to it.

The homestead share sits near 17 percent, which suggests much of the stock is held as something other than a primary residence. Combined with the modest median living area and the absence of identified community amenities, this is a place to value for the home and the location rather than for lifestyle extras. There is no HOA infrastructure reflected in the data to lean on or budget around.

A 12-home enclave with no active listings rewards local timing and honest valuation over broad market comps. We track when these homes actually move, help you separate a cosmetically updated house from a structurally updated one, and price condition realistically in a street where no two homes are alike. If a given listing is wrong for your plan, we will say so.
