What it's like

Living in the Bay Area

The Bay Area runs along the west side of Bay Avenue, from North Street to 16th Street. Life here faces the water: boat slips and docks, sailing and jet skiing on the bay, and sandbars you can wade out to at low tide.

Homes range from bayside condos to new single-family builds with their own docks, and the bay blocks are a short bike ride from downtown and the beach.

What to know before you buy

  • Waterfront homes often come with docks or slips; check the bulkhead's age and condition before you buy.
  • Bayside lots are generally lower than the beach blocks, so flood insurance and elevation matter even more.
  • Many bayfront homes rent well to boaters in summer.
  • New construction is common, with several new single-family homes on the market at any time.

Nearby

  • The bay, docks and marinas
  • Downtown Asbury Avenue
  • Sunset views across the bay
  • The beach and boardwalk, less than a mile east

Market figures are from the MLS as of October 2026, rounded, and change daily. Neighborhood boundaries are informal and the MLS areas don't always match them street for street.
