Cameras that cost that much usually have some manual controls and/or have a large optical zoom, which means that are a bit larger than most lower cost cameras.

The Canon SX230 HS is typical of cameras in the higher end of your price range.
It produces excellent photos and has lots of options.
Does it suite your needs or are you looking for something different?
