Stranahan High School

It works well for buyers who want to be central in Fort Lauderdale with easy access to the coast, canals, and strong schools. The area draws families thanks to options like Nova Blanche Forman Elementary, and the mix of waterfront and pool homes gives it a distinctly Florida feel. It's an established neighborhood rather than a new-build enclave, so expect character and mature lots.

It's mid-market for Fort Lauderdale, with a median list price of $590,000 and a median sold price of $530,000 over the last year. The range is enormous — from $89,900 at the low end to nearly $14 million on premium waterfront — so there's genuine entry-level product alongside a luxury tier of 69 homes listed above $1M. Average price per square foot runs about $481.

The typical home is around 1,388 square feet, and at roughly $481 per square foot that lands near the $590,000 median list price. Waterfront and pool homes push higher, while condos and smaller units anchor the lower end near $89,900. Recent sales closed at a median of $530,000, so real-world numbers tend to come in a bit under list.

It's balanced and gives buyers some breathing room, with homes taking a median of 64 days to sell and sellers averaging 96% of their asking price. That means listings sitting past two months are often open to negotiation. Over the past 12 months, 307 homes sold, so there's steady turnover to work with.

Much of this zone is single-family homes without HOA dues, and no meaningful median HOA figure applies across the area. Property taxes run a median of about $7,121 per year, which is standard for Broward County at these price points. If you rent instead, the median is around $2,600 per month.
