Sunset Palms Elementary School

It's a strong fit for families who want newer homes, outdoor space, and quality schools — 51 of the 57 active listings have pools and the area feeds into Woodlands Middle School and Lake Worth High. The mix of waterfront and gated options gives buyers real flexibility. It's a settled, residential pocket of western Lake Worth rather than a nightlife district.

It sits at the upper end of Lake Worth, with a median list price of $870,000 and 26 of the 57 active listings priced above $1 million. That said, listings run from $329,990 up to $2,349,000, so there's range depending on size, location, and whether you want water frontage.

The median list price is $870,000 and homes trade around $395 per square foot, with a typical home measuring 2,445 square feet. Over the past year the median sold price was $860,000, so listing and closing numbers track closely together.

It's active and efficient — 64 homes sold in the last 12 months and the median listing goes under contract in just 21 days. Sellers are averaging about 97% of asking, which tells you well-priced homes don't sit long. Browse the live map to see what's currently available.

The median property tax runs about $6,657 per year in this zone. HOA figures vary widely across the individual communities and aren't consistently reported, so confirm dues on any specific listing before you write an offer — many of the 25 gated neighborhoods carry their own fees.
