The build years run from 1911 to 2024, with a median of 1975. In practice that means you'll find early-century homes, mid-century construction, and brand-new infill all within the same footprint. Older homes carry the usual questions around systems, roofs, and prior updates; newer builds sidestep some of that but come at their own cost. The median living area near 2,406 square feet is generous for an established neighborhood, though square footage alone won't tell you which era or condition tier a given home falls into.

The homestead share of about 72.5% points to a settled, primarily owner-occupied base. For a buyer, that generally means competing for homes people have lived in and maintained differently, so inspection findings will vary widely. For a seller, it means your comparable set is thin on truly like-for-like properties, and pricing has to lean on the specifics of your home rather than a neighborhood average.

In a market where the housing spans 1911 to 2024, the average number hides more than it reveals. We price and vet each home on its own condition, era, and updates rather than a blanket per-foot figure, and we push for the documentation and inspection detail that actually moves a deal in a neighborhood this varied.
