Sturtevant is the lowest-priced market among its immediate Racine County neighbors. The village's typical home value of $293,139 as of April 30, 2026 ranks 13th of 14 municipalities in the county and sits $126,276 below the Racine County median of $419,415.
The nearby comparisons make the discount concrete. Union Grove's typical value is $339,064, Mount Pleasant's is $348,334, Elmwood Park's is $353,052, and Burlington's is $363,491 — every one of them $45,000 to $70,000 above Sturtevant.
Values here rose 4.2% over the past year and 29.2% over five years, so the discount is not a stagnation story; a home tracking the typical value added roughly $66,000 since 2021.
One quirk in the data is worth understanding: ZIP 53177, which covers Sturtevant, shows a typical value of $319,448 — about $26,000 above the village figure of $293,139. ZIP boundaries extend beyond village limits, so the ZIP number reflects a broader mix of homes. Buyers searching by ZIP should expect village listings to price closer to the lower village-level figure.
Sturtevant's growth trajectory is middle-of-the-road and steady: 4.2% in the past year, 29.2% over five. That five-year pace is comparable to nearby markets while starting from a lower base, which has kept the dollar gap to Mount Pleasant and Burlington wide. Against the seven-county regional median of $455,834, Sturtevant's typical value runs $162,695 lower — one of the deeper regional discounts in Racine County. As always, past growth does not guarantee future performance.

Over the 12 months ending June 2026, 72 single-family homes sold in Sturtevant, Wisconsin in arms-length transactions, at a median price of $291,450. Half of those sales fell between $203,875 and $406,250. Source: Wisconsin Department of Revenue real estate transfer returns, compiled by Sawar Homes — every recorded sale, including for-sale-by-owner and builder-direct transactions that never appear in the MLS.
Zillow’s typical-home-value estimate for Sturtevant is $293,139, while homes that actually changed hands had a median price of $291,450 — a difference of -0.6%. These measure different things, and neither is wrong: the index estimates the value of every home whether or not it sold, while the sale figure reflects only the homes that changed hands, which usually skew toward the more affordable end of the market.
For buyers: Sturtevant is the value play of central Racine County in this data. At $293,139, it undercuts Mount Pleasant by $55,195 and Union Grove by $45,925, while posting a comparable growth rate — 4.2% over the past year. Cross-shopping the village against ZIP 53177 listings requires care, since the ZIP's $319,448 typical value includes homes outside village limits; anchoring offers to village-level comps protects against overpaying.
For sellers: your listing benefits from being the affordability answer for buyers priced out of Mount Pleasant and Burlington, where typical values run $55,000 to $70,000 higher. Steady 4.2% annual appreciation and 29.2% five-year growth give comps a consistent upward drift without the volatility of hotter markets. Pricing against village comps rather than the higher ZIP 53177 figure keeps a listing competitive with the buyer pool actually searching at this price point.
Sturtevant grew up around a rail junction, and trains still shape daily life: Amtrak's Hiawatha line stops at the Sturtevant station with service to Milwaukee and Chicago. Fireman's Park anchors the village center, and the I-94 interchanges at Highways 11 and 20 sit just west for commutes up and down the corridor.
