July 2026
Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly supply and activity totals for the latest available year.
Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026).
Pike County’s home values have climbed over the past year, with the typical home value up more than 24 percent year over year. At the same time, the number of homes sold has fallen about 42 percent, and active listings are down nearly 33 percent from last July. Compared with Illinois overall, where the median sale price is about $338,000, Pike County’s typical home value of roughly $165,000 highlights a more affordable market.
In the latest month of July 2026, the median sale price in Pike County was about $164,500, while the median list price sat just under $98,000. Homes are moving faster than a year ago, with the median time on market at around 65 days and down from much longer waits seen last year and earlier this spring.
Supply conditions point to a seller’s tilt, with only about 2.3 months of inventory in July compared with roughly 3 months statewide. New listings jumped sharply from June, while pending sales were slightly higher than a year earlier, suggesting buyers are still active despite fewer options. An average sale-to-list ratio near 98 percent indicates sellers are generally pricing close to where homes ultimately close. With these shifting conditions, both buyers and sellers in Pike County can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding a local agent who understands this market.
Pike County offers residents a welcoming, close-knit community with abundant outdoor recreation, accessible local services, and opportunities for small-town business and family life.
Pike County stands apart from larger regional hubs like Quincy and Springfield with its quieter pace, strong farming roots, and tight community connections. Towns such as Pittsfield and Griggsville feel familiar and welcoming, where local schools, churches, and civic groups are central to daily life.
Outdoor recreation is a major draw. The Mississippi and Illinois rivers frame the county, offering fishing, boating, and scenic drives. Locals frequent Pike County Pike State Forest for hiking and hunting, while families enjoy youth sports and community events at the Pittsfield Parks & Recreation facilities. The historic downtown square in Pittsfield, anchored by the Pike County Courthouse, adds character and a sense of continuity.
Residents appreciate practical amenities like the Pittsfield Public Library and local schools in Pleasant Hill and Barry, along with regional healthcare and shopping in nearby Jacksonville. Housing options range from classic farmsteads and river-view retreats to in-town homes close to schools and services.
For both long-time residents and those relocating for space, hunting land, or a smaller community, timing and preparation matter. Inventory can be limited and highly local. Agent Pronto connects buyers and sellers with Pike County agents who understand each community and can help you move confidently when the right opportunity appears.

“We worked with Andrew McCatty and he could not have made the process smoother! He was very responsive, prepared, and showcased the house spectacularly - we had an offer in 4 days!
