The defining fact here is age. A median build year of 1942 means most homes predate modern construction norms, and the range from 1935 to 2020 tells you a handful of infill or rebuilt properties sit alongside the originals. That variety is an opportunity and a trap: two houses on the same block can be very different assets depending on what's been done beneath the surface.

The homestead share is about a third of homes, which points to a meaningful non-owner-occupied presence in the neighborhood. Practically, that shapes the inventory mix and the kind of renovation quality you'll encounter, and it's another reason to underwrite each property on its own merits rather than on a neighborhood average.

In a neighborhood where value hinges on the age and condition of each individual home, the average number tells you almost nothing. We read the comps at the property level, flag the systems and structural questions that matter in stock this old, and price to what a home actually is rather than what the block suggests. That's the difference between a clean sale and a deal that unravels at inspection.

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