A diverse community with proximity to a top-rated school

North Corals is an Oakland Park suburb that has continued to develop in the last few decades. It's lush residential landscaping and quiet streets make for pleasant morning walks and calm home life. At the same time, the arrival of new businesses has aided in the growing popularity of North Corals and surrounding communities. Alongside its newfound conveniences and attractions, residents value its proximity to a top-rated elementary school and range of home prices. "I've been selling real estate for 21 years, and the area of Oakland Park was not always what it is today," says Erik Cavanagh, a realtor with RE/MAX Experience and an Oakland Park resident. "Twenty years ago, its downtown was a dead zone with mainly city offices. It was just waiting for some development and creativity to take it to the next level. Now, Oakland Park is such a desirable destination. It's a very progressive, diverse and colorful community."

Getting involved at Floranada Elementary

North Corals stands out from other neighborhoods in the Corals family with its proximity to Floranada Elementary, a popular and highly rated public school. “I get calls from younger families wanting to move to this area so their kids can go to school at Floranada,” says Cavanagh. The elementary school maintains an A-minus score on Niche and hosts clubs like robotics, debate, music and gardening for students to explore. Meanwhile, older students attend classes at James S. Rickards Middle School, which has a C score on Niche, and Northeast High School, which has received a B-minus.

Shopping and Dining

A drive through the North Corals neighborhood is complemented by tall, mature palm trees scattered throughout the community’s front yards. To pair are cordylines, succulents and smaller bottle palm trees used as landscaping for modest front yards. Ranch-style homes built in the 1960s dominate the community. “There’s a lot of opportunity to find midcentury gems to restore,” says Cavanagh. Most of these houses feature a horseshoe-shaped driveway and underground gas piping. Those looking to purchase a home in the neighborhood can expect a range in price from $600,000 to $850,000, depending on size and condition, while larger homes that sit lakeside can reach up to $1 million. Alongside this, those who value a laid-back setting will enjoy the absence of a homeowners association.
