A saved listing search for Open Sands homes in Panama City Beach counted 1 active and 31 sold. The stored result carries no capture date, so it says nothing about what is offered now; rerun the search before relying on it.
Searching Bay County's online parcel map for this name comes up empty: the layer has no subdivision or legal-description field, and no owner is called Open Sands. The county roll, as republished in the Florida statewide parcel layer, does carry the name. 389 distinct parcels have legal descriptions beginning Open Sands, among them 13 filed as Open Sands II, 19 as a replat of Block F and 8 with parcel-specific wording such as lot fragments and beginning-at-a-point descriptions.
Use classes on the roll count 351 single-family parcels and 27 vacant ones. The rest are 3 city-owned parcels, 2 common-area parcels, 2 vacant commercial lots, and one each of a shopping parcel, a warehouse, a multifamily building of ten or more units and a small multifamily parcel. Oleander Circle holds 73 of the parcels and Poinsettia Drive 64.
Of the 356 parcels with a recorded year built, 213 date from 1970 through 1989, 15 predate 1970 (the earliest is 1955) and 55 were built in 2010 or later. The middle year is 1984.
A legal-description match shows how the appraiser filed a parcel. It does not show who controls common ground, whether an association exists or what access comes with a lot, and the county's map pages say their GIS data is not a legal representation of the features depicted. This page states no flood zone or insurance finding; check the address on the county's FEMA flood-zone layer.

County parcel records carry no flood field, so the answer depends on the lot. Look the address up on the FEMA flood-zone layer in Bay County's online map and ask an insurance agent about that specific property.

It is a count from one stored search with no capture date on record, not live inventory and not a count of the 389 parcels. Run the search again whenever availability matters.
