Suburban lifestyle with easy access to parks, the coast and Palm Bay’s major employers
Residents of Northeast Palm Bay take advantage of a quiet suburban life in residential neighborhoods just a short drive away from the greater Palm Bay area’s diverse establishments and parks. Outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy activities ranging from obstacle-filled bike courses at the Grapefruit Bike Trails to fishing at riverfront parks like Castaway Point Park. Homes here range from modest ranch-style properties to new, contemporary dwellings, and most people here own their properties. With easy access to coastal cities and proximity to major employers, more and more people are taking advantage of Northeast Palm Bay’s more affordable housing opportunities in comparison to areas like Melbourne and Viera. “The local economy is becoming more resilient. It is no longer based on tourism and snowbirds,” says Joey Guest, a Realtor with eXp Realty who has more than 15 years of experience in the Palm Bay area. “The job market has improved, and it seems that it will only go up with the rise of engineering companies in the area.”
Ranch-style and contemporary dwellings that often avoid HOAs
Homes here range from late 20th-century ranch-style dwellings to contemporary builds with open layouts. They sit on moderately sized lots with decorative trees like palms scattered throughout the yards and can go for upwards of $250,000 to upwards of $580,000, depending on their age, size and location. Lots are also available for those interested in custom builds. Some properties sit along the Melbourne Tillman Canal, which was built to prevent flooding and erosion damage from Florida’s storm-prone weather. Streets are narrow and don’t often have sidewalks, but residents can take advantage of paved driveways and attached garages. There’s a mix of homes that use septic and city sewers, and while some homes are in HOAs, many are not, making Northeast Palm Bay highly desirable for those looking to live without restrictions.

A short drive away from Palm Bay’s amenities and employers
Public transportation is not easily accessible, so most residents drive. Locals are near many establishments and employers, making commutes relatively short. Palm Bay is home to many engineering and technology companies, including L3Harris, which is about 5 miles away from Southwest Palm Bay, and ISO Group, which is around 6 miles away. For some time in the sun, residents can head to nearby beaches like Melbourne Beach, which is about an 11.5-mile drive away, or check out establishments near the Indian River, some of which are less than 10 miles away. The Melbourne Orlando International Airport is around 62 miles away via Interstate 95 and Florida 528, and Health First’s Palm Bay Hospital is about 5.5 miles away via I-95. Orlando is around 70 miles away via I-95 and FL-528.
GreatSchools:
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
