Frequently Asked Questions about Old Northwood Historic District

What is it like to live in Old Northwood Historic District, West Palm Beach, FL?

Old Northwood Historic District is a residential historic neighborhood of early-20th-century Craftsman, Mission and Mediterranean Revival single-family homes on tree-lined streets. It sits just north of downtown West Palm Beach, offering walkable or short-drive access to restaurants, shops and the Brightline/Tri-Rail/Amtrak station. Housing is primarily older, often renovated homes, so maintenance and restoration costs are common considerations. Safety and crime rates vary by block—consult Palm Beach County or West Palm Beach Police crime maps for current data—and the subtropical climate brings hot, humid summers with periodic hurricane and flooding risk.

Is Old Northwood Historic District, West Palm Beach, FL expensive?

Old Northwood is a sought-after historic neighborhood near downtown and Northwood Village with mostly single-family historic homes. Housing prices have historically been higher than the West Palm Beach median, as renovated bungalows and Mediterranean-style houses often command a premium. I don’t have real-time 2025 listing data here—check the local MLS or major real-estate sites for current sale and rental prices.

What is the weather of Old Northwood Historic District, West Palm Beach, FL?

The district has a tropical climate with hot, humid summers and warm, mild winters. There is a pronounced wet season from May–October with frequent afternoon thunderstorms and a noticeably drier period from November–April. Hurricane season runs June–November, so heavy rain and tropical-storm or hurricane risk occur during that period.

How safe is Old Northwood Historic District, West Palm Beach, FL?

Neighborhood-level crime statistics for Old Northwood Historic District are not consistently reported separately from West Palm Beach, so precise local rates are not readily verifiable. City-level data from recent FBI and municipal reports show West Palm Beach has had violent and property crime rates above the U.S. average in recent years (latest published data through 2023–2024). For current, block-level safety information consult the West Palm Beach Police Department crime-mapping tools and the Old Northwood neighborhood association or local community resources.
