Doby Elementary School

It's a solid fit for families and commuters — the area is anchored by good schools that feed into Eisenhower Middle School and Lennard High, with newer neighborhoods and easy interstate access. Downtown Tampa is about 21 minutes away, so you get suburban space without a punishing commute. The mix of new construction and established homes gives buyers at different stages plenty of options.

It's moderately priced for the Tampa Bay area, with a median list price of $430,500 and active listings running from $249,000 up to $1,300,000. Only two homes are currently listed above $1M, so the market is concentrated in the mid-range rather than the luxury tier. At about $203 per square foot, buyers get reasonable value for the space.

Over the last 12 months, 438 homes sold at a median price of $436,055, closely tracking the current $430,500 median list. The typical home runs about 2,215 square feet at roughly $203 per square foot. You'll find a range from starter-priced resale homes to larger properties among the 27 new-construction listings and the Apollo Beach homes for sale nearby.

It's balanced and steady — 144 homes are active and the median time on market is 41 days, which is a healthy pace rather than a bidding-war frenzy. Sellers are getting about 99% of their asking price on average, so well-priced homes hold their value. You can track current activity on the live map.

HOA costs are low here, with a median of just $14 a month, so ongoing community dues won't weigh heavily on your budget. The median annual property tax is $7,459, in line with Hillsborough County norms for homes at this price point. For anyone weighing renting first, the median rent runs about $2,798 a month.
