This HOA-free neighborhood in Pembroke Pines is almost entirely residential, safe for the park and a small cluster of restaurants and services along Taft Road. Residents enjoy quiet suburban streets with plenty of sidewalks and trees, plus proximity to the city’s major shopping centers, green spaces and the airport.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
