It’s time to start daydreaming about a coastal lifestyle, because Realtor.com just released a list of the most affordable beach towns of 2023. Beach homes are often associated with wealth and luxury—and understandably so, as beach towns and cities account for some of the most expensive real estate in the country. However, there are some beach towns where the cost of buying a home is on par or even lower than the national average. For reference, as of 2022, the average home price in the US was $348,079 (which is up 29 percent since 2020)—and the median home price for the majority of the towns on Realtor.com’s list is lower than that.

In order to compile the list, the data team at Realtor.com, including data journalist Evan Wyloge, started with a federal listing of beaches and their locations. The team then aggregated Realtor.com listing data for every home put on the market in the past year located within a 1-mile radius of each beach and selected the most affordable beach towns by price per square foot. (The most affordable on the list comes in at $144 per square

03/04/2023dansa

As a public service, The Tennessean has made this content free.

Recap: Three children and three adult staff members were killed Monday at Covenant School in one of Tennessee’s deadliest school shootings. Audrey Hale, 28, entered the school at about 10:11 am armed with a rifle. Officers who responded to the scene killed Hale about 14 minutes later. Video footage shows a timeline from when Hale first got to the school until the police fired the fatal shots.

911 calls from inside the school released Thursday by Metro police give more details as to the timeline of the shooting, as do a pair of officer radio clips released by police.

Gov. Bill Lee said Friday he would propose a measure to increase school security measures statewide and was open to the idea of considering something similar to red flag laws, which have already been enacted in other states including Florida.
