Lake Worth sits just inland of the Atlantic in Palm Beach County, a place that trades polish for personality — walkable streets, an arts-leaning downtown, and a mix of longtime residents and newcomers who came for the value. It's the kind of community where a compact condo in a 55+ enclave and a modest single-family house share the same zip code, and where you can reach the beach or West Palm without a long haul.

The active market here is small and affordable right now, with just four listings and a median list price of $265,000 — well below what you'd pay closer to the water. Buyers can realistically shop single-family homes alongside townhomes & condos, and most listings fall neatly into the $200K–$300K range. With homes sitting a median of 54 days on market, there's room to negotiate rather than rush.

Lake Worth is in Palm Beach County, Florida.
