A real, disclosed price spread across sources

Zillow's cited average home value ran $237,256 (June 2026), while Redfin's March 2026 median sold price ran $295,000, Movoto's May 2026 median list price ran $297,000, and RealtyTrac cited $274,807 -- a real spread this record does not resolve to one number (base record).

A relatively fast-moving market

Homes go to pending in approximately 27 days per Zillow (June 2026) -- a comparatively brisk pace for the Mississippi Gulf Coast (base record).

An elevated, disclosed property tax rate

Ownwell cites Long Beach's median effective property tax rate at 1.35%, with a median annual bill of $1,511 -- among the highest cited within Harrison County (base record).
