Buyers hold real leverage here right now. Homes sit longer than this ZIP's own norm and sellers are conceding more than they usually do.

bar is the decade that defines this neighborhood. Age tells you what to inspect: a 1970s ZIP

$/sqft and sold price are each their own ranking of
these 281 sales — the 25th percentile by $/sqft is not always the same
sale as the 25th percentile by price, since home size varies within any price range.
Price per square foot falls as homes get bigger here, so a large home should be judged against its own size band below, not the ZIP overall.

This is the ZIP. Your street tells its own story.
I run this same analysis at the subdivision and
size-band level before any client of mine lists or offers.
* 10-year appreciation compares the 3-month-smoothed median price per square foot in October 2016 against October 2026 — the same series shown in the chart above.
† 2008 drawdown is peak-to-trough on the smoothed monthly series: the August 2007 peak to the February 2011 low. On annual medians the figure looks smaller, but it would not match the chart.
‡ The hero tiles above use the latest three complete months (more current, smaller sample); the price-tier table below uses six months (more stable, larger sample). The two medians will not always match, and in a ZIP with fewer sales the gap can be substantial, not a rounding difference.
