Median days on market
Clay County sits just southwest of Jacksonville, tracing the St. Johns River and dotted with the quiet lakes around Keystone Heights. It's a place where established riverfront towns like Green Cove Springs and busier suburban hubs like Orange Park coexist with rural stretches near Middleburg, so you can pick your pace — commuter-close or genuinely country. For buyers who want land, water access, and a shorter price tag than the city core, it delivers.
Right now there are 104 active listings with a median list price of $382,490, and homes are moving — median days on market is just 19 and sellers are getting 98% of asking. The mix leans heavily toward single-family homes (86 of the active count) with a strong 41 new-construction options, plus 16 waterfront homes for those chasing the river and lakes. If your budget is tighter, it's worth checking just reduced listings and using browse by price to filter fast.
