Indian Rocks Beach, Florida

It's a walkable, low-key beach town where the Gulf and the Intracoastal frame everyday life, with neighborhoods like Indian Rocks and Gulfview giving it a residential feel rather than a resort strip. Anona Elementary is the most common assigned school, and the 45-minute drive to Tampa International keeps you connected. If you want sand access and water views without high-rise density, it fits.

It sits at the higher end of the Pinellas market, with a median list price of $712,000 and an average of $633 per square foot on a median home size of 1,296 square feet. There are 35 listings above $1 million, though entry points start in the high $200,000s. For buyers stretching the budget, it's worth checking the just reduced listings.

Active prices run from $274,900 up to $8,950,000, with the median at $712,000. Smaller condos and townhomes & condos anchor the lower end, while Gulf-front single-family estates drive the top of the market. With 108 homes active, there's meaningful choice across that range.

There are 108 active listings and homes are taking a median of 48 days to sell, which points to a balanced-to-buyer market with room to negotiate. New construction is limited to about 4 listings, so most inventory is existing homes and condos. Browsing open houses this week is a smart way to gauge value in person.

The median HOA runs about $898 per month, reflecting the strong condo and townhouse presence, while single-family homes often carry lower or no dues. Median property taxes are around $7,607 per year. Factor both into your budget, especially if you're comparing a homes with a pool purchase against a condo.
