With 307 homes and only 5 active listings as of September 2026, inventory is scarce but so is urgency - 7.5 months of supply and 68 days to a median contract tell you nothing moves fast at this price point. The year-over-year change of 144% and the long-run move of 455% since 2012 look dramatic, but in a market closing roughly 11 homes in the window, a couple of outsized sales can swing the median hard. Read those percentages as context, not a forecast.

The housing itself is the story. A build range from 1924 to 2024 with a 1958 median means you are shopping everything from original mid-century homes to new construction, and the per-square-foot figure of about $629 averages across all of it. A homestead share near 77% suggests most of these are held as primary residences rather than churned as rentals or flips, which reinforces the slow, owner-occupied character. There are no community amenities identified in current MLS listings, so value lives in the lot, the structure, and the location.

In a market this thin and this expensive, comps are sparse and every data point matters. We underwrite each home on condition, lot, and renovation level rather than leaning on a median that spans homes built almost a century apart. For sellers, that means pricing to the actual buyer-leaning reality and planning for a longer marketing window; for buyers, it means knowing where there is room to negotiate and where there is not.
