Data Analysis
Fort Myers price per square foot fell 1.4% — the headline median moved 0.0%.
Price per square foot strips the size mix out of the median. When the two diverge, the mix of what sold is doing the moving.
What the number is
Median price per square foot in Fort Myers was $212 in July 2026, -1.4% from a year earlier, while the headline median moved 0.0%. The gap of 1.4 points is the part of the headline explained by WHAT sold rather than what it sold for.
The twelve-month picture
Neither series should be read alone; together they separate price movement from mix movement.
