Recorded names & construction-year samples (2 record groups)

October 10, 2026 research snapshot. These are legal-description search groups, not a count of homes or certified plat boundaries. Divisions, phases and similarly named records remain separate. Year-built fields can include later replacement buildings and non-house property types.

History & construction

Beachcrest

The county research keeps 2 recorded-name groups separate. “BEACHCREST DIV 1” has 30 county records with a year built from 1949–2019, median 1983; sampled residential lots have a 0.14-acre median (30 observations); “BEACHCREST” has 29 county records with a year built from 1955–2010, median 1988; sampled residential lots have a 0.24-acre median (29 observations). These assessor samples help compare building eras, but do not establish the first or last home in a subdivision or the permit history of an individual address.
