Central sits within the everyday fabric of North Miami, a compact residential neighborhood where you're close to the county's job centers, technical schools, and the wider Miami-Dade grid. Communities like Westside/sunkist Grove anchor the area, and families here are assigned to schools including Martin Luther King Elementary School and career-focused campuses like D.a. Dorsey Technical College. It's a straightforward, unshowy corner of South Florida rather than a resort scene.
For buyers, this is a thin, slow-moving market — worth watching more than rushing. There's just one active listing right now, priced at $140,000, while the two homes sold over the past year closed at a median of $539,000, so what's listed and what actually trades can look very different. Browse the full picture across North Miami homes for sale or track new inventory on the live map.

Straight answers
Central FAQs
Is Central a good place to live?+
It's a practical, residential neighborhood in North Miami with easy access to Miami-Dade's job centers and technical schools like George T. Baker Aviation Technical College. It suits buyers who want to be in the metro without the resort pricing, and who value a quieter day-to-day feel.
Is Central expensive?+
It's a mixed picture. The single active listing is priced at $140,000 and average price per square foot runs about $133, but the two homes sold over the past year closed at a median of $539,000 — so recent sales point to a much higher range than the current listing suggests.
What do homes cost in Central?+
Right now there's one home on the market at $140,000, roughly 1,050 square feet at $133 per square foot. Because sales volume is so low, that number won't tell the whole story — last year's closings had a median sold price of $539,000.
How is the market in Central?+
It's slow and thin. Only two homes sold in the past 12 months, the current listing has sat around 323 days on market, yet sellers who did close got 102% of asking — meaning inventory is scarce and the right home moves on the seller's terms.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
Expect an HOA around $1,046 per month in this area, which is a meaningful monthly cost to budget for. Median property taxes run about $2,993 per year, so factor both into your total ownership math alongside the purchase price.
