The single most important number in this data set is the 1920-2023 build span sitting around a median year built of 1954. That is not a neighborhood built in one era and aging together — it is a mix of early-20th-century construction, mid-century infill, and newer builds scattered throughout. Buyers should expect to evaluate each home on its own renovation history rather than assuming a uniform baseline for wiring, plumbing, or roof age.

No community amenities are identified from current MLS listings, which tells you this is a housing-stock play, not an amenity-driven one. At a median 1,296 square feet, homes here skew toward smaller, efficient footprints — the kind that reward buyers focused on layout and lot use over sheer size. The 52.4% homestead share suggests a reasonable core of owners settled in for the longer term, which can mean fewer listings turning over purely for quick resale.

In a subdivision spanning over a century of construction, pricing a home correctly means going property by property — comparing actual condition and updates, not just square footage or year built. We walk buyers and sellers through that comparison directly, so offers and listing prices reflect the real state of the home rather than a neighborhood average that does not apply.

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