Non-Gated Pet Friendly Communities in Boca Raton, FL
 
Although there are many pet friendly gated communities in Boca Raton and Delray Beach, there are also many non-gated pet friendly communities.  Some people prefer these types of communities for any number of reasons;  1) the maintenance tends to be lower as there is no guard or gate, 2) they are usually less strict with their rules and regulations in these communities and 3) some people simply do not like living in a homeowner's association.   There is something for everyone in south Florida.
 
The following communities are non-gated and pet friendly.  These are all resales.
