The area features several waterside parks, including Maybury Park with its playground and fishing jetty, and Carter Lake Park, known for its splash pad and annual fishing derby. The local Prairie Flower Casino is a significant employer. Carter Lake's real estate market is brisk, with homes selling faster than the national average. Housing styles range from ranch-style and Neo Traditional homes to a mobile home subdivision.
