We have eight parks and three golf courses in east Carmel that equates to one of the highest per square mile densities of greenspace for a municipality in the country.
When it comes to housing....we also have some remarkable statistics. Of the 11,200 plus households, 10574 are owner occupied. 639 residents lease their homes and we have over 1100 vacant residences. The median age of our homes is 14 years and our median sales price last year was $255,552.
Now to make all of the people in the East Of Keystone HR department nervous, a few facts about our ethnicity. Over 35,000 of us are either White, African American, Native American, Asian, Hawaiian/Pacific Islander or Hispanic. There are over 1100 east Carmel residents who list their ethnicity as 'other.' I suppose that helps put the Men In Black movies in pespective and explains the late night crowd at Wal Mart. We've taken this information from 2010 census data so everything you've read here has probably changed a bit. What it does tell us is that we live in a diverse, successful and engaging community that despite the lack of that whole 'beach' thing is still an awfully good environment to live.
