Community split by the St. Lucie River

In the middle of the River Park neighborhood is a stretch of the St. Lucie River where anglers can be seen pulling giant snook and tarpon into their boats. But while fishing is loved here, the neighborhood offers more than a great place to drop a line. Those looking for a mostly residential, HOA-free community near Port St. Lucie find it in River Park. "It's very well kept. There's a large older population, so it's very quiet, and you could leave your doors open there, and no one would care," says Ann Marie Green with a chuckle. Green is a Realtor with Supreme Global Realty and a Port St. Lucie resident who sells throughout the city.

Midcentury-era ranch-style homes are common

Most homes are midcentury-era ranch-style, often with two bedrooms, and Key West-inspired, painted in bright colors. They’re typically priced between the low $200,000s and the high $300,000s. Other homes are three- or four-bedroom Minimal Traditional, built in the 2000s and featuring full renovations. They generally range between the low $400,000s and low $600,000s and sit on grassy lots dotted with trees. While there are no sidewalks, there is plenty of room for evening walks. For residents 55 and older, the Spanish Lakes community has manufactured homes priced between $100,000 and $250,000.

Boating and fishing in the St. Lucie River

Boaters are particularly drawn to River Park due to the abundance of homes with backyards opening onto the St. Lucie River. Private docks are common, allowing homeowners to boat toward the main neck of the river and follow it downstream to the ocean. And because this neighborhood has a public boat ramp, even those living on dry lots have access. This ramp is located at the River Park Marina, a small island park that’s a go-to for boating, fishing and general recreation. More options lie at Sportsman's Park with its athletic facilities, including its tree-shaded fitness zone to its basketball courts and baseball fields.

Police are often out patrolling on US 1. They seem pretty quick to respond to issues on the road (accident, disabled vehicle etc). I never have had an issue with crime in our neighborhood, I sometimes forget to lock my car or front door (bad, I know) but my vehicle has never been broken into. Neighbors are friendly and everyone seems to look out for one another.
