Straight answers
James A. Long Elementary School FAQs
Is the James A. Long Elementary zone a good place to live?+
It's a residential pocket of Palatka with river-town character and a clear school path from elementary through Palatka High School. The small scale and low taxes appeal to families and budget-conscious buyers alike. Inventory is limited, so it suits people who know what they want.
Is it expensive to buy here?+
Not by most Florida standards — the median list price is $305,000 and homes have sold at a median of $219,000 over the last year. Prices range widely, from a $50,000 entry point up to a $1.249M waterfront listing, so there's room for different budgets.
What do homes cost in this zone?+
Expect a median list price around $305,000, with an average of $555 per square foot across a median home size of about 1,296 square feet. Actual sold prices have run lower, with a median of $219,000 over the past 12 months as the smaller and lower-priced homes change hands.
How is the market right now?+
It's a small, brisk market: just five active listings, a median of 22 days on market, and 21 homes sold in the last year. Sellers are getting about 94% of their asking price, so there's modest room to negotiate — you can track what's available on the live map.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
Property taxes are low here, with a median of $1,424 per year. HOA data isn't available for this zone, which is typical for an area of established, non-association homes — worth confirming on any specific listing with William D. Moseley Elementary School nearby and similar neighborhoods around it.
