John M. Sexton Elementary School

It's an established northern St Petersburg neighborhood that balances everyday residential quiet with easy regional access — about 25 minutes to Tampa International and 26 to downtown Tampa. Families also weigh nearby schools like Bay Point Middle School when they settle here. The steady turnover of 343 sales over the past year shows it's a place people actively buy into.

It's mid-range for St Petersburg, with a median list price of $430,000 and a median sold price of $409,000 over the last 12 months. Because listings run from $60,000 to $2,250,000, there's room for both budget-conscious buyers and those shopping the 23 homes priced above $1M.

The average price is about $318 per square foot, and with a median home size of 1,228 square feet, many homes land near the $430,000 median list price. If you're renting first, the median rent in the area runs around $1,900 a month.

It's a balanced, negotiable market — homes take a median of 45 days to sell and sellers collect about 96% of their asking price on average. With 110 active listings and 343 sales in the past year, buyers have real choice without feeling rushed. You can track current inventory on the live map.

The median property tax here is about $2,890 a year, which is manageable for the price point. HOA fees vary widely by property — the median runs around $542 a month, typically tied to condo or managed communities, so freestanding single-family homes may carry little or none.
