Cities With the Best Master-Planned Communities

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with RealEstateAgent.com

Let’s face it: some cities are just so poorly designed that it’s painful. Narrow streets lined with crowded, cramped and disparately styled homes and businesses make many neighborhoods a painful, unappealing eyesore. Navigating these neighborhoods by car is a headache on its own merit, and God forbid you have to find parking! 

 

Most of these problems are the result of the intrinsic nature of the free market; if you own property, you have the right to do virtually anything you want with it. With this principle in full effect in most urban or suburban neighborhoods, it usually results in the kind of neighborhood described above. But what if there was a way to solve this problem? 

 

But wait; there is! That’s right. By including stringent construction and maintenance requirements in the contracts of sale, master-planned communities do away with the unpleasant, unappealing tendencies of normal neighborhoods. But one question remains: what cities have the best master planned communities? 

Dallas, TX

When you think of Dallas, there are a lot of things that might come to mind. Cowboys in ten gallon hats, rockabilly and country music, sheriffs and outlaws are all images that the word “Dallas” might conjure up in your head. But there’s another thing to be found in this city, one that isn’t nearly as well known: master-planned communities

 

That’s right; although you may not have heard of them, Dallas is home to some of the nicest master-planned communities in the midwest, and quite possibly the entire country! From communities of cozy cottage-style homes to neighborhoods composed of sprawling mansions and estates, there’s something for every budget and preference. 

 

For those of you who want to make one of these gorgeous neighborhoods your home, the best way to do that is by contacting one of the realtors in Dallas TX. These skilled, experienced real estate professionals will find you a home that best suits your needs at the lowest price possible. It really is your best option!

The Villages, FL

There are plenty of cities that offer one or more great master-planned communities; but what if the whole city was a master-planned community? That’s right; The Villages Florida is a master planned community that is an entire city of its own! By creating a population centre composed entirely of master-planned community residents, they’ve invented the perfect master-planned community! 

 

This sprawling, opulent community is located in a sunny but surprisingly temperate area of central Florida, with palm trees, warm sand and beautiful canals. It really is everything you could want from a master-planned community! And, at only a one to two hour drive from the beach, you can spend as much time on the shore as you like! 

 

If you want to make this spectacular community your home, you can give one of the real estate agents in the Villages a call. They’ll cue you in to what’s available in the community, and find you a home that suits your needs and your budget. Who knows? Before long, you might just be calling The Villages home! 

Jacksonville, FL

There isn't any shortage of things to say to Jacksonville’s credit. From its excellent job scene to its vibrant nightlife and real estate market, it’s a long, long list. But Jacksonville has one more card up its sleeve than you might have thought: one of the best master planned communities in the entire state! 

 

That’s right: Jacksonville is home to the Nocatee Master Planned Communities, a group of thriving communities of upper-echelon socialites and professionals. These communities are well known for their excellent management, wide array of amenities, and gleaming, spotless homes. There really are few places like it! 

 

Guess what: you can make Nocatee your home! If you contact one of the real estate agents in Jacksonville FL, you can have a home in this beautiful community in no time. With time, you might be calling this beautiful place home! 

Los Angeles, CA

Now here’s a city you might not have expected to see on this list! This west coast metropolis is one of the most enticing places in the entire country, drawing newcomers from all over the world every year; but did you know it also has some great master-planned communities? It does! Impressively constructed and excellently managed, you’ll find they meet any and all demands! 

 

There’s plenty of variety too; the only limit on available styles is your bank account and your imagination! Looking for a cape cod style home in a friendly, down-to-earth community? You got it! An upscale two story contemporary house, with plenty of space between you and your next door neighbors? No problem! 

 

The bottom line is this: if you make your home in one of the master-planned communities in Los Angeles, you won’t be disappointed. If you’re looking to set yourself up in one of these communities, you’re in luck. Real estate agents in Los Angeles have plenty of listings, and they can help you find the one best suited to you! 

Conclusion 

Privacy. Security. Peace of mind. These are all reasons people choose to live in master-planned communities. Whether it's the appeal of a gated neighborhood free of unwanted visitors, or the opulent decadence of a multi-story contemporary mansion, whatever appeals to you about living in a master-planned community, we’re sure you’ll find it in one of these cities!
