McLane Middle School

It's a solid pick for families and commuters — you're about 11 minutes from downtown Tampa and 24 from the airport, with schools like Brooker Elementary School serving the area. The zone offers a practical mix of gated communities, pool homes, and a few waterfront properties. It reads as an established, everyday-Brandon neighborhood rather than a resort or 55+ enclave.

It's moderately priced for the Tampa area, with a median list price of $336,950 and a median home size of 1,508 sqft at about $230 per square foot. Listings range widely from $109,000 up to $1,995,000, so there's room for both entry-level buyers and those wanting a larger home. Only one active listing tops $1 million, so this is not a luxury-heavy market.

Over the past 12 months, 725 homes sold at a median price of $330,000, closely tracking the current median list of $336,950. At an average of $230 per square foot and a typical 1,508-sqft home, most buyers are shopping in the low-to-mid $300,000s. You can compare active options against nearby zones like Burns Middle School.

It's active and fairly balanced — homes are going under contract in a median of 29.5 days, and sellers are getting about 98% of their asking price on average. With 266 active listings, buyers have choices, but well-priced homes don't linger. That combination means come prepared to make a serious offer on the right property.

The median HOA runs about $239 per month, though that varies a lot depending on whether you're in one of the 54 gated communities or a non-HOA neighborhood. Median property tax is around $3,430 per year. If you're weighing renting first, the median rent in the zone is about $1,998 per month.
