Grove Park Elementary School

It's a strong pick for families who want pool-and-waterfront living tied to established public schools — 43 of the 61 active homes have pools and 20 are on the water. The zone routes toward Palm Beach Gardens High School and sits close to other well-regarded campuses, which is a big part of the draw.

It's mid-market for Palm Beach County, with a median list price of $540,000 and an average of $407 per square foot. The range is wide, though — entry-level listings start around $85,000 while 15 homes sit above $1 million, so there's room at several price points.

The median home runs about 1,824 square feet and lists at $540,000, and over the last 12 months 47 homes sold at a median of $525,000. That gap between list and sold tells you sellers are pricing close to reality rather than reaching.

Balanced and steady — homes are averaging 59 days on market and sellers are netting 96% of asking, which points to healthy but not overheated demand. With 61 active listings you can browse the current inventory and still have negotiating leverage.

Median HOA dues run about $395 a month, which lines up with the number of gated and pool communities in the zone, and median property tax lands around $6,145 a year. If you're weighing a rental instead, the median rent here is roughly $3,200 a month.
