Shoreacres was incorporated in 1949, but most of its current housing dates much later — the median house or condo was built in 1982, with an estimated 2024 value of $313,153, up from $102,100 in 2000. As of the 2020 census there were 649 housing units, up only modestly from 594 in 2000, and nearly 98% of that housing is detached single-family homes.
