Delray Beach real estate guide

TL;DR: Delray Beach runs from the ocean to large 55+ and gated communities out west. East of I-95 you find downtown Atlantic Avenue, older homes and condos. West has more HOA communities.

Home types

• Single-family homes and new construction near downtown
• Condos and townhomes near Atlantic Avenue and the Intracoastal
• Age-restricted 55+ communities, from large condo villages to gated single-family communities, in several parts of the area
• Gated golf communities, some outside city limits with a Delray Beach mailing address

Places and getting around

• Atlantic Avenue shops and restaurants
• Delray Beach public beach
• Pineapple Grove Arts District, just north of Atlantic Avenue
• Tri-Rail station for trips to Miami and Fort Lauderdale

Prices and HOA fees

Prices and HOA or condo fees vary a lot from one community to the next, and they change often. For current prices, see what is listed now. For your own home, get a free home value and I will send you real numbers.

What to know before you buy or sell

• A Delray Beach mailing address is not always inside city limits. Taxes and services can differ.
• Downtown parking and special events affect some streets. Visit at different times.

Schools

Look up school zones and ratings for a specific address with the School District of Palm Beach County. Zones can change, so check the address, not the city.

My local tip

Confirm whether the home is inside Delray Beach city limits or in unincorporated Palm Beach County. The mailing address does not tell you. It affects taxes, utilities and which rules apply.
