About the area

Residential GridQuiet / ModestCar-DependentTree-Lined

Pinecrest is an established mid-century residential neighborhood situated just south of Historic Downtown Sanford. Characterized by modest single-family homes, mature tree cover, and local community spaces, it provides quick access to Sanford's downtown amenities while maintaining a quiet, working-class neighborhood feel.

Scores are safety-driven: recent crime levels and local news, plus Census data on income and poverty, housing, education and household make-up, and access to vehicles, internet and health coverage. Walk and bike scores are shown separately and do not affect the safety score. A guide, not a guarantee. Neighborhood outlines come from official city and US Census boundary data.
