Number of Homes in Surf Pines
At the Safety and Security meeting on May 12, 2021 there was a question on the number of homes in Surf Pines (SP) over the years. Well with our new Sales Force database we were able to generate the number of homes that existed in Surf Pines on specific years based on the year built listed in the Clatsop County Property Tax Map. The results were very interesting.
As of this year we have 353 homes in SP. 10 of these are still under construction. In 2020 there were 9 homes completed, in 2019 there were 9 new homes completed, and in 2018 there were 8 new homes completed. That means in the last 4 years we have had 46 new homes built in SP. As of today there are 55 buildable lots left in SP.
Here is a breakdown of all homes built by decades and 1969 the year SPA was incorporated, so you can see how the community has grown over the years.
- Year……Total homes Located in SP
- 2021……………353

- 2001……………230
- 1991……………177

Lastly, in the last year the percentage of full time residents increased from 50.2% to over 55%. Also, we seem to be having more younger residents moving in. It is tough to determine the actual age ranges, since we do not have age information available.
