Lakeside Elementary School

It's a settled West Broward community with a clear family focus, feeding into well-regarded schools like Charles W Flanagan High School. The heavy presence of waterfront homes and pools — 71 and 55 of the active listings respectively — gives it a relaxed, outdoorsy feel that appeals to buyers looking for more than just square footage.

Compared to much of South Florida, no — the median list price is $199,000 and homes average $193 per square foot. Prices do run the full spectrum, from $98,000 up to $1,055,000, so there's flexibility depending on size and features, but only a single active listing is above $1 million.

The median list price is $199,000 against a median home size of about 1,082 square feet, and 307 homes have sold over the past year at a median of $200,000. That close alignment between list and sold pricing tells you the market here is realistically priced.

It's steady rather than frantic. Homes are taking a median of 69.5 days to sell and sellers are netting roughly 95% of their asking price, which means motivated buyers have real negotiating room — you can browse Pembroke Pines homes for sale to gauge the current pace.

Median property taxes run about $2,911 per year, which is manageable for the price point. HOA data isn't consistently reported across these listings, so confirm dues on any specific home — especially among the 22 gated-community options where fees are more likely to apply.
