Phillis Wheatley Elementary

It's a solid choice for buyers who want Apopka's neighborhood feel with genuine access to greater Orlando — downtown is about 24 minutes and Universal roughly 25. Families also appreciate having schools like Wolf Lake Middle and Wekiva High in the wider area. The steady pace of sales, 224 homes over the past year, points to consistent demand.

It's mid-range for the Orlando metro. The median list price is $410,000 and the median home actually sold for $355,990 over the last 12 months, so there's typically negotiating room between asking and closing. With active listings starting around $255,000, entry points exist below the median.

Active listings run from $255,000 to $1,100,000, with a median list of $410,000 and an average of about $225 per square foot. The median home size is 1,855 square feet, so a typical property lands right around that mid-$400s range. You can browse current Apopka homes for sale to compare specific options.

It's balanced and unhurried. Homes take a median of 72 days to sell and sellers are receiving about 98% of their asking price, which gives buyers time to evaluate without heavy competition. With 39 active listings and 224 sales over the past year, there's healthy turnover.

The median HOA runs about $167 per month, though many properties carry no HOA at all — four of the current listings are in gated communities. Median property tax is around $3,966 per year. If you're weighing renting versus buying, the median rent in the area is about $2,500 per month.
