With a median year built of 1959 and original stock reaching back to 1884, you are buying age as much as location. Expect to weigh roof, systems, foundation, and prior renovation work carefully — the difference between a restored home and a deferred-maintenance one is the difference in value here. The 2024 end of the range confirms there is new construction filling gaps, so the streetscape is uneven rather than uniform.

The roughly 1,135-square-foot median keeps this a modest-footprint area, better suited to buyers who value walkable, in-town positioning over square footage. A homestead share under 20% tells you owner-occupants are the minority, so comparable sales lean toward investor and as-is transactions. Read comps by condition tier, not just by proximity, and confirm what any given number actually represents before you anchor to it.

An area this uneven rewards local reading. We sort the comps by condition rather than lumping renovated and as-is sales together, help you scope inspection risk on older structures, and tell you plainly when a listing's price reflects work that was done — or work that still needs doing.
