Thomas Jefferson Middle School FAQs
Is the Thomas Jefferson Middle School zone a good place to live?+
It's a solidly residential slice of Merritt Island with a strong roster of nearby schools, from Merritt Island High School down through the elementary level. The barrier-island setting between the Indian and Banana Rivers means water access is common, and Orlando stays close for work or play at about 50 minutes downtown.
Is Merritt Island expensive?+
It's mid-range for coastal Florida, with a median list price of $524,950 and an average of $285 per square foot. That said, the range is wide — active listings run from $109,999 to $2,695,000 — so there's genuinely something at most budgets.
What do homes cost in this zone?+
The median list price is $524,950 and the median home size is about 1,668 square feet, working out to roughly $285 per square foot. Over the last 12 months 162 homes sold at a median price of $459,950, so the closed numbers run a bit below current asking.
How is the market right now?+
There are 42 active listings and homes are taking a median of 54.5 days to sell, which points to a balanced pace rather than a frenzy. Sellers are getting about 96% of asking on average, so well-priced offers have negotiating room. You can track new inventory on the live map.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
Where an HOA applies, the median dues run about $149 a month, and only 3 of the active listings are in gated communities — so many homes here carry no association at all. Median property tax lands around $3,710 a year, and typical rents sit near $2,800 a month if you're weighing an investment.
