Perry Primary School

It's a good fit if you want small-town North Florida living with easy access to the Gulf coast and Taylor County's pine country. Families often build their search around the Taylor County Elementary School zone, and the pace here is calm and unhurried. Just know it's a small community with limited inventory.

Not by Florida standards. The median list price is $307,000, but active listings range from $129,000 all the way up to $725,000, so there's something at most budgets. The median sold price over the past year was a more modest $204,749.

Expect a median list price around $307,000 and an average of about $272 per square foot on a median home size near 1,404 square feet. Actual sold prices have run lower, with a median of $204,749 over the last 12 months. You can see current Perry homes for sale to compare directly.

It's a small, slow-moving market that leans toward buyers. Homes take a median of 71.5 days to sell, and sellers are averaging about 91% of their asking price. With only 10 active listings and 12 sales in the past year, patience and local guidance go a long way.

The median HOA runs about $267 per month, though that only applies to communities that have one. Property taxes come in at a median of roughly $2,193 per year, which is manageable for the price points here.
