Golden Gate City is an unincorporated community in central Collier County, laid out on a grid between Santa Barbara Boulevard and Collier Boulevard. It was platted in the 1960s and built out steadily through the 1970s and 1980s, and is a designated Community Redevelopment Area.
Golden Gate City is recorded across 23 separate plats covering 5,231 parcels. This page counts the 4,131 single-family homes built before 2010. Its other 643 residential parcels (643 multi-family less than 10 unit) are not counted here. Those parcels carry 184 roof permits of their own in the same period.
1206 of those 4,131 homes have replaced a roof since 2020 — 29.2%, above the 29.1% rate for comparable-age housing across ZIP 34116. Half of the jobs declared between $11,000 and $18,250, against a countywide median of $24,000.
Permit activity peaked in 2023 (315 permits) and has slowed since, with 160 in 2025 and 55 so far in 2026.
No single plat is large enough to describe the neighbourhood — the largest holds 771 of its pre-2010 homes. This page groups them using the county's own Community Redevelopment Area boundary, so the area can be read as one place rather than several dozen fragments.
A Community Redevelopment Area is a boundary drawn by Collier County for redevelopment funding. It is used here purely as a geographic grouping; it implies nothing about any individual property.
At 1.00× its ZIP baseline, Golden Gate City sits in line with the replacement rate of comparable-age housing across 34116.
The ZIP baseline counts only pre-2010 homes, so neighbourhoods are compared against housing of similar age rather than against newer stock that has not needed a roof yet. Bars are drawn on a fixed 0–60% scale.
This page counts single-family homes built before 2010. Condominium and multi-family parcels are excluded because their roofs are frequently permitted per building against an association-owned parcel rather than per home, so no per-home rate can be computed for them. That exclusion is a limit of this page, not a statement that no work happened there.
Half of the 885 contractor-pulled roof permits here declared between $11,000 and $18,250, with a median of $14,150. That is toward the lower end for Collier County, whose median is $24,000.
Declared value is the figure reported on the permit application. It is not a receipt, and it may exclude tear-off, permit fees, or work added after filing. Declared values countywide cluster into a lower band near $15,000 and a higher band above $40,000.
Counts roof permits issued on the 4,131 counted homes. 2026 is a partial year (records run through June). January 2020 through June 2026.
The busiest contractor here pulled 35 of 886 contractor permits — about 4%. Across Collier subdivisions the leading contractor typically holds about 14%, so no single company has established itself here. Roofing work in Collier is spread thin generally — in most subdivisions the leading contractor holds under a fifth of the work.
Permits filed by the same business under more than one licence number are combined. Owner-builder permits (349 here) are excluded from this table.
This area spans 23 recorded plats in total; the 14 listed above are those containing single-family homes built before 2010. Each entry shows how many of those homes it holds. Only plats with at least 50 get their own page, which is why 4 of these 14 have none.
