Key Findings

1. The neighborhood's primary market value indicator is the median sold price of $251,497, and with the price year-over-year trend up this points to modest appreciation in recent transactions.

2. A median days on market of 416 signals slower sales velocity and potential pricing friction; the market temperature is neutral, suggesting a move toward balance rather than an extreme buyer- or seller-favored environment.

3. Sample-level supply appears relatively constrained relative to transaction activity, which helps sustain seller pricing power; the median price per square foot of $191 provides a clear valuation benchmark for comparing recent SFR and condo transactions.

4. Interest rate pressure is elevated and current local 30-year fixed rates are 6.4% versus 6.0% earlier in 2026, which may dampen affordability; median market rent of $1,595 with the rent year-over-year trend flat indicates stable rental support but limited near-term rent-driven upside.
