Miami Carol City Senior High

It's an established, residential corner of Miami Gardens built around single-family homes and neighborhood schools. Families are drawn to the mix of feeder options and the relative value compared to coastal Miami-Dade. It's a practical, community-minded choice rather than a resort-style enclave.

By South Florida standards, it's moderate: the median list price is $550,000 and homes average $385 per square foot. Listings currently span from $160,000 to $850,000, so there's genuine range depending on size and condition. None of the active inventory is above $1M, which keeps the ceiling reasonable.

The median home is about 1,445 square feet, and over the past year 320 homes sold at a median of $490,000. Current listings ask a $550,000 median, and sellers are collecting roughly 97% of asking. If you're renting first, the median rent runs about $2,825 a month.

It's active and quick, with 95 homes on the market and a median of just 21 days to go under contract. The 97% list-to-sold ratio tells you well-priced homes move fast and lowball offers rarely land. You can track current inventory on the live map.

Most of this zone is traditional single-family housing, so HOA fees aren't a typical factor here. The median property tax runs about $5,911 per year. Only six of the current active listings are in gated communities, so budget for taxes rather than monthly association dues in most cases.
