The James A. Long Elementary zone sits in Palatka, the Putnam County seat along the St. Johns River in Florida's quieter northeast interior. This is unpretentious small-town living — modestly sized homes, mature lots, and easy access to the river and to schools like Palatka High School and the nearby Robert H. Jenkins Junior Middle. Families here trade big-city bustle for space, water, and a slower pace.
For a buyer today, this is a small, opportunity-driven market. There are just 7 active listings across a wide price range, with a median list price of $250,000, so choices are limited but the spread means there's something at nearly every budget.

What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
HOA data isn't reported for most homes in this zone, and few if any listings sit in gated or golf communities, so ongoing dues tend to be minimal. Property taxes are modest, with a median of roughly $1,735 per year.
