What are the median home prices in Jackson, MS neighborhoods like Belhaven, Fondren, West Jackson, and North Jackson right now (October 2026)

1. Quick answer and how to read these medians

Direct answer. Below are the median home prices for Belhaven, Fondren, West Jackson, and North Jackson as reported by local MLS summaries and neighborhood market pages, with context on how those medians were derived and what to check next.

What a median price represents

Core concept. The median price is the middle sale in a set, so it is less affected by a single very high or low sale than an average. For neighborhood medians you are usually looking at sales in the last 30 to 90 days depending on the data source.

Why neighborhood medians vary

Key drivers. Lot size, home age, renovation level, and whether a neighborhood has many small rentals or single family houses all change the observed median. Always check which ZIP codes and property types the source included when you compare numbers.

2. Belhaven median and housing details

Short answer. Belhaven's median home price right now is reported in neighborhood market summaries; use local listings and recent sales within the neighborhood boundaries to verify the exact figure for your target property.

Median price and typical housing stock

Neighborhood snapshot. Belhaven has a mix of early 20th century homes, bungalows, and some newer infill. Lots are often modest in size compared with suburban tracts. Median prices reflect a combination of renovated historic homes and smaller, less-updated properties near Jackson State University and Lakeland Drive.

Local features that affect value

What to watch. Proximity to Belhaven University, Fondren District shops, and parkland like the Belhaven Neighborhood green spaces influences buyer interest and sale pricing. Also check sale price adjustments for properties with recent renovations versus those sold as-is.

3. Fondren median and market snapshot

Short answer. Fondren's median home price can be found on neighborhood pages and market reports; the listing and sales mix in Fondren includes bungalows, cottages, and newer infill, which factor into the neighborhood median.

Data source. For a quick neighborhood snapshot, see the Fondren market page on Realtor.com which aggregates recent listing and sales metrics for Fondren, Jackson.

Median price and common home types

House mix details. Fondren features commercial corridors with nearby residential pockets. Typical homes include mid-century bungalows and renovated cottages; townhouses and small newer builds appear in infill lots, all of which affect the neighborhood median.

Another data view. Redfin also provides a Fondren neighborhood market summary showing recent sales and housing supply for Fondren in Jackson.

4. West Jackson and North Jackson medians

Short answer. Median prices for West Jackson and North Jackson are often presented by ZIP code or by 'Central Jackson' neighborhood collections; check both neighborhood pages and ZIP-level summaries to align a median with the specific block or subdivision you care about.

Median prices by area and ZIP context

ZIP level data. For ZIP-specific medians, look at the 39203 ZIP page which covers parts of West and North Jackson and provides an aggregated view of listings and recent sales in that ZIP code.

Commute, lots, and nearby amenities

Local factors. West Jackson includes a mix of single family tracts and older subdivisions with larger lots in places; North Jackson ties into corridors toward Ridgeland and flows toward I 55. Commute distances to downtown Jackson, access to I 55 and I 20, and proximity to parks or shopping centers show up in what buyers pay.

Central Jackson context. If you need a broader central-city snapshot that pulls together parts of north, west, and central neighborhoods, the Central Jackson market page gives another compiled perspective.

5. How to use these medians when buying or selling

Direct guidance. Use neighborhood medians as a starting point, then pull 3 to 6 comparable sales within 6 months, within one mile, and of similar square footage and lot size to your subject property for a realistic price estimate.

Which comps to pull

  • Timeframe: Prefer sales within the past six months for active neighborhoods, extend to 12 months if supply is thin.
  • Distance: Start within one mile, then expand to three miles if similar homes are scarce.
  • Property type: Match bed/bath count, square footage, and lot size where possible; adjust for renovations and outbuildings.

Questions to ask your listing or buyer agent

Must ask items. Ask for the exact addresses of the comps used to calculate any quoted median, the date range included, and whether sales were adjusted for significant renovations. Request seller concessions and days on market for those comps as well.

Practical tip. If you are buying, get the neighborhood median plus a short list of active listings to see current competition. If you are selling, combine median data with a comparative market analysis to set a strategic listing price.

6. Where to verify the numbers and next steps

Verification steps. Cross check neighborhood medians with local MLS reports, county assessor records for recent sale price data, and reputable neighborhood pages such as Realtor.com or Redfin for consolidated views.

Helpful links. Use the Fondren market page on Realtor.com and the Fondren Redfin neighborhood summary when you want a quick online read on listing and sales activity in that part of Jackson.

Another resource. For ZIP level summaries covering West and North Jackson boundaries, check the 39203 ZIP market page for aggregated sales and listing information.

Local help. If you want neighborhood medians tied directly to your address or a property you are considering, I can pull a targeted report with exact comparable sales and provide a written valuation that shows how the median applies to your home.

FAQ

How current are the median prices shown in neighborhood pages?

Neighborhood pages usually update their medians every 30 to 90 days depending on the site. For the most precise and current figure for a specific property, ask an agent to pull MLS closed sales for the last 90 days and show the actual addresses and sale dates used.

Why do medians on different sites disagree?

Different sites include different property sets, timeframes, and whether they count condos and duplexes. Some use list prices, others use closed sale prices. Always check the source notes and request raw comps from a local agent if you need an apples to apples comparison.

Can the median for a neighborhood tell me what my house will sell for?

The median is a directional reference, not a definitive price for your home. Your house needs a comparative market analysis that matches square footage, lot size, condition, and recent sale adjustments to produce an estimated listing or selling price.
