Living in the Apollo Beach Elementary zone
The Apollo Beach Elementary zone occupies the waterfront heart of Apollo Beach, a community on the southeast shore of Tampa Bay in Hillsborough County. The defining feature is water — of 195 active listings, 99 are waterfront, many on the canal system that gives homeowners direct or near-direct access to the bay. This is a place built around boats, outdoor living, and a slower rhythm than the city a half-hour north.
The housing character here leans toward planned, gated communities: 108 of the active listings sit behind gates, and 72 include a pool. That mix suits buyers who value security, shared amenities, and a cohesive neighborhood feel. It's a strong match for boating families, remote workers who want space, and move-down buyers trading city density for waterfront calm.
What it isn't is a walkable, urban environment. Life here is car-oriented, and the appeal is the water and the communities rather than a downtown scene. Buyers who prioritize that lifestyle tend to be happy; those who want to stroll to restaurants and nightlife should weigh that honestly.
Schools for homes in the Apollo Beach Elementary zone
The zone takes its name from Apollo Beach Elementary School, the assigned elementary for much of this part of the community. Families in the broader Apollo Beach area are also served by schools including Doby Elementary School, which serves other pockets of the community.
For older students, nearby options in the area include Eisenhower Middle School and Lennard High School. These schools are part of the Hillsborough County Public Schools system that covers Apollo Beach.
School attendance boundaries change over time, and a single community can be split across more than one zone. Before you make an offer based on a specific school, confirm the exact assignment for that address directly with Hillsborough County Public Schools — it's the only way to be certain.
Homes for sale in the Apollo Beach Elementary zone: prices and housing
The median list price in the zone is $580,000, with an average of $292 per square foot and a median home size of about 2,139 square feet. The range is wide: active listings start near $124,000 and reach $16.74M, reflecting everything from attached and modest homes to large waterfront estates. The 51 listings priced above $1M are concentrated in the waterfront tier.
Recent sales give a grounded picture of value. Over the last 12 months, 389 homes sold at a median price of $510,000, and sellers received about 96% of asking on average. With a median of 92 days on market, this is not a frenzied environment — buyers generally have time to tour, compare, and negotiate.
Carrying costs are a real part of the math here. The median HOA is about $242 per month, consistent with the many gated and amenity-rich communities, and median property tax runs around $5,933 per year. New construction is available — 24 active listings — and some communities carry CDD fees on top of HOA dues, so review the full cost picture for each neighborhood before committing.
Getting around from the Apollo Beach Elementary zone
The zone's location on the southeast shore of Tampa Bay makes the Tampa commute manageable without being next door to it. Downtown Tampa is roughly 31 minutes by car, and Tampa International Airport is about 45 minutes away — reasonable for both commuters and frequent travelers.
The primary connector is I-75, which runs along the eastern edge of the region and links Apollo Beach to Tampa, Brandon, and points south. As with any Tampa Bay suburb, expect heavier traffic during morning and evening rush on that corridor, so test-drive your actual commute at the times you'd travel.
Day to day, this is a car-dependent area. The payoff of the location is that you're close enough to Tampa for work, dining, and the airport while still living on the water — a balance that draws many buyers to this part of the bay.
Is the Apollo Beach Elementary zone a good fit?
This zone rewards a specific kind of buyer: someone who wants waterfront or gated-community living, values outdoor and boating life, and is comfortable in a suburban, drive-everywhere setting. With 99 waterfront, 108 gated, and 72 pool listings active, the inventory genuinely supports that lifestyle. If that describes you, there's real selection across price points.
The trade-offs are worth naming. Prices sit in the mid-to-upper suburban range — a $580,000 median and $292 per square foot — and carrying costs include a typical $242 monthly HOA, roughly $5,933 in annual taxes, and potential CDD fees in some communities. The 92-day median market time works in a buyer's favor, but it also signals that this isn't a market where homes fly off the shelf.
For families, the draw of the Apollo Beach Elementary zone and nearby schools is a plus, provided you confirm boundaries for your exact address. If you want waterfront access with a manageable Tampa commute and you're comfortable with the carrying costs and car-dependent setting, this is a strong, well-stocked market to shop.

Apollo Beach Elementary School FAQs
Is the Apollo Beach Elementary zone a good place to live?+
It's a strong fit for buyers who want waterfront or gated community living with easy Tampa access — Downtown Tampa is about 31 minutes away. The zone leans toward boaters and families, with 99 waterfront and 108 gated listings currently active. The trade-off is that it's suburban and car-dependent rather than walkable.
Is it expensive to buy here?+
The median list price is $580,000 and the average is $292 per square foot, which places the zone in the mid-to-upper range for the Tampa Bay suburbs. There's genuine spread, though — active listings start around $124,000 and climb to $16.74M. The 51 listings above $1M are almost all waterfront estates.
What do homes cost in the Apollo Beach Elementary zone?+
Expect a median list price of $580,000 and a median home size of about 2,139 square feet. Over the last 12 months, 389 homes sold at a median price of $510,000, so sold prices are running somewhat below current asking levels. That gap is useful context when you're building an offer.
How is the market right now?+
It's a buyer-friendlier market than the headline price suggests. Homes are taking a median of 92 days to sell and closing at roughly 96% of asking, which leaves room to negotiate. With 195 active listings, you have selection rather than scarcity.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
The median HOA runs about $242 per month, reflecting how many homes sit in gated, amenity-backed communities. Median property tax is around $5,933 per year. Confirm the specific HOA and any CDD obligations for each community before you commit, since they vary widely here.
What schools serve this zone?+
The assigned elementary is Apollo Beach Elementary, and nearby schools in the area include Doby Elementary School, Eisenhower Middle School, and Lennard High School. Attendance boundaries change, so verify the zone for any specific address directly with Hillsborough County Public Schools.
How is the commute to Tampa?+
Downtown Tampa is roughly 31 minutes by car, and Tampa International Airport is about 45 minutes. The main route north is I-75, which connects the Apollo Beach area to the wider Tampa Bay region. Plan for typical rush-hour buildup on that corridor.
Is there new construction available?+
Yes — 24 of the 195 active listings are new construction, so a modern build is a realistic option alongside resale homes. New-build communities here often come with HOA structures and sometimes CDD fees, so factor those in. Browse current options on Apollo Beach homes for sale to compare builds against established neighborhoods.
