Median days on market
Century sits at the northern tip of Escambia County, right up against the Alabama line, where the pace is slower and the lots run wider than anything you'll find closer to Pensacola. This is a place for buyers who want room to breathe, a short list of neighbors, and a mortgage that leaves money for everything else. Life here leans toward single-family homes on real land rather than dense subdivisions.
The market is genuinely tiny, so timing matters. Right now there's a single active listing at $95,000, and the one home sold over the past year went for $114,999 — sellers here have been getting 100% of asking, which tells you inventory moves when it's priced right. If you're serious, watch the just reduced feed and available land & lots closely, because options don't sit on the shelf.
Century is in Escambia County, Florida.
