Counts are homes for sale in a box about a half mile on each side of the center, so they run a little higher than the half-mile circle above. Each center point is a landmark or intersection on the main street, taken from Wikipedia and Wikidata; points marked approximate were placed from a nearby station or landmark and are within a block or two. Most downtowns stretch several blocks either way.
the nerd check
Buying near a main street
- Walk it firstStraight-line distance isn’t walking distance. Walk from the front door to the main street, and time it.
- Visit at busy hoursRestaurants, events and deliveries change a block’s feel. See it on a Friday night and a Saturday morning before you buy.
- Parking rules change block by blockStreets near many downtowns have permit or time-limited parking. Ask the city what applies to the block.
- Check the zoning around youBlocks next to a downtown often allow taller or mixed-use buildings. Look at the zoning around a house, not just on it.
