Sea Castle Elementary School

It's a solid, family-oriented pocket of Miami Gardens with steady turnover — 104 homes changed hands here in the past year. Buyers who like backyard space appreciate the mix of waterfront and pool properties, and nearby feeder options like Miramar High School round out the picture. It rewards buyers who want a real neighborhood over a polished new-build enclave.

It's mid-range for the metro. The median list price is $349,000, though homes that actually sold over the past 12 months carried a higher median of $490,950 — so the closing numbers tend to run above the sticker on a lot of the standing inventory. Active listings span $79,900 to $665,000, so there's genuine range depending on size and condition.

Expect to pay around $293 per square foot, with a median home size near 1,218 square feet. That puts a typical home in the mid-$300,000s to around $490,000 once you factor in recent sold data. The 12 waterfront listings and 6 pool homes tend to sit toward the upper end of that range.

Balanced and workable for a buyer. With 59 active listings and a median 56 days on market, homes aren't flying off the shelf, and sellers are averaging 97% of asking — meaning reasonable offers get taken seriously. You can track new listings on the live map as they come up.

HOA data isn't reported for most of this zone, which reflects a largely non-association single-family neighborhood. The median annual property tax runs about $5,395, and if you're weighing renting versus buying, the median rent here is $2,425 a month.
