The defining feature here is age variance. A median build year of 1953 inside a 1940-to-2022 range means most of the inventory is mid-century, with a scattering of newer construction mixed in. Living space is modest at a 1,531-square-foot median, which is consistent with the era. Buyers should budget for inspection and, in many cases, updates to older systems — and should read each listing as its own project rather than a uniform product.

About 61% of homes carry a homestead exemption, which points to a stock held largely by owner-occupants rather than short-term holders. That tends to make for slower, more deliberate turnover, and it reinforces the point that pricing here is idiosyncratic — set house by house, on condition and finish level, rather than by a steady stream of comparable sales.

In a small community with thin recent transaction data and a wide age range, the analysis has to happen at the property level. We walk each home for condition, systems, and update history, and we price against what a house actually is rather than a neighborhood average that may not fit it. That discipline matters most exactly where the public number is least reliable.

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