Nobody Is Buying These 10 Florida Towns Where Homes Start At $118K - Here's Why

Nobody Is Buying These 10 Florida Towns Where Homes Start At $118K - Here's Why Ten American towns, the real price of a home in each one, and the honest reason it is that cheap. Every list like this gets the same comments: you didn't say what the property tax is, where the water comes from, how far the hospital is, or what people actually do for work there. So this one covers all of it, town by town, with the catch said out loud.

Rents, where quoted, are the Zillow Observed Rent Index. Populations are US Census Bureau estimates. Only places that still work as towns are on the list: at least 2,500 people, their own school district, and services in town. Property taxes are estimates at each state's average effective rate - your bill depends on the county, the assessment and any exemption you qualify for, so ring the assessor.
