With a build range of 1923 to 2024 and a median year around 1967, this is not a subdivision with a repeating floor plan. You'll find older cottages, mid-century homes, and the occasional new-construction infill on the same streets. That variety is the story: two homes of similar size can price very differently based on updates, systems, and lot. The median living area sits near 1,538 square feet, so most product is modestly sized rather than sprawling.

Just over half the homes — a 53.1% homestead share — are owner-occupied, which points to a reasonably stable, lived-in neighborhood rather than a heavy investor block. No community amenities show up in the MLS data, so budget your expectations around the house and its location, not clubhouses or shared facilities.

In a market this thin — one active listing, two recent closings — pricing comes down to reading condition and vintage correctly, not pulling a tidy comp. We walk the house, weigh what's been updated against a 1967-median stock, and price to what the individual property actually is. That judgment matters more here than in a cookie-cutter community.

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