The defining feature here is the build range: 1971 to 2024. That five-decade spread inside 149 homes tells you the community has seen ongoing replacement and rebuilding rather than a single construction era. A newer unit and a half-century-old one can trade very differently, so the median build year of 1977 is a midpoint, not a description of what you will actually tour.

The homestead share of roughly 65% suggests a stable, mostly owner-occupied base. That matters for anyone weighing this as a primary residence versus an investment — turnover and rental supply are likely limited, and pricing leans on the individual home's updates and living space, which sits at a modest 1,296-square-foot median.

In a community this small with this much age variation, the neighborhood average tells you almost nothing about a specific home. We price and evaluate unit by unit — matching a 1970s original against a recent rebuild, reading updates against original condition, and helping you avoid overpaying for a vintage that a headline median can disguise.
