With 161 homes and a build range that spans more than a century, this is not a place to shop by the median alone. The median year built of 1970 and a median living area near 960 square feet point to modest, older stock, but the presence of homes as new as 2024 means age and updates account for most of the price you'll pay. Verify the structure, the age of the roof and systems, and any recent replacement before anchoring to a number.

The market signals reinforce caution and opportunity in equal measure. Days on market at 104 is long, and the 14.3% year-over-year decline means momentum is with buyers. A homestead share of roughly 47% tells you a little under half of these homes carry a homestead exemption — a useful clue about owner-occupancy versus other holding patterns, and worth confirming parcel by parcel.

In a market this condition-driven and this thinly traded, the median tells you almost nothing on its own. We walk the actual structure, pull the parcel and homestead status, and price against comparable age and condition rather than a headline figure — so you don't overpay on a slow-moving listing or underprice a genuinely updated one.
