Citrus Grove Elementary

It's a solid fit for families who want Deland's downtown-and-river lifestyle with clear school assignments feeding into Deland High School. The zone mixes established neighborhoods with newer builds, and the steady 315 sales over the past year show consistent demand rather than boom-and-bust swings.

It sits in a middle range for the area, with a median list price of $397,495 and an average of $226 per square foot. There's genuine breadth, though — listings start around $110,000 and climb to $1,765,000, so your budget has room to work.

The median sold price over the last 12 months was $350,000, a bit below the current $397,495 median list, on a typical home size of about 1,892 square feet. Only four active listings are priced above $1 million, so the bulk of inventory lands in the mid-range.

Homes are selling in a median of 33 days with sellers getting about 97% of asking, which is a balanced, functional market. With 94 active listings and 315 sales in the past year, you can see current options on the live map and expect to have negotiating room.

The median HOA runs about $100 per month, and many established streets carry no HOA at all. Median property tax is roughly $4,178 per year, and if you're weighing renting first, median rent sits around $1,927 per month.
