Median days on market
Dakota sits in the western reach of Boca Raton, where quiet gated streets and private pools set the pace of daily life. Every active home here is behind a gate and comes with a pool, and a couple back up to water — the kind of setup that suits buyers who want space and privacy without giving up proximity to the amenities of greater Boca Raton. Neighboring communities like Boca Chase, Boca Winds, and Spanish Isles round out this part of the county with an established, family-oriented feel.
The market here is small and moves quickly. With just 4 active listings and a median list price of $1,187,250, this is a boutique pocket where homes trade fast — the median days on market is only 14. Sellers have been getting about 95% of asking, so serious buyers should come prepared and watch the live map closely for new inventory.
Dakota is a community in Boca Raton, Florida.
