Here, modern new constructions with up to six bedrooms sit on tidy lots with well-manicured lawns that average a half-acre. The area’s more secluded properties can span up to five acres. Properties in Falcon range from $400,000 to $1.5 million, depending on size. “Homes are starting to move faster,” says Candler. “The last house I listed sold in two weeks. Very clean, well-priced homes are selling pretty quickly.”

Endless entertainment with pools, playgrounds, BMX trails and golfing
Falcon residents are spoiled for choice when it comes to parks. The area’s master-planned communities provide a slew of green spaces and playgrounds throughout their subdivisions, often with several pools and clubhouses for more options and entertainment. Specialized parks like the Woodman Hills BMX and Disc Golf Course add to the fun. Golf lovers can spend time on the green at the 18-hole Antler Creek Golf Course, which winds through Woodman Hills and Meridian Ranch.Local eateries, a few shops and nearby retail hubs
As with housing, this up-and-coming area will continue to see more commercial retail and dining spaces move into the area as it grows. Residents can grab groceries at Safeway and pick up their everyday essentials at Walmart. Both anchor opposite ends of the same shopping center at the intersection of East Woodman Road and Highway 24 – the two main roads used to travel to and from Colorado Springs. Several chain and local restaurants, including Red’s American Grill, find a home here, too. Red’s is popular among sports fans who like to watch games with fellow enthusiasts. Meals range from bar snacks to ribs, apart from Sundays when the establishment hosts their weekly Sunday Brunch Poker League. For a sweet treat, right across the road from Red’s is Swirly Cow Frozen Yogurt. When residents are seeking more retail options, they can drive east along Woodman Road for 12 miles and arrive at Chapel Hills Mall, or head 10 miles south on Highway 24 to find a different selection along the Powers corridor, which includes Target and Cinemark.

Highway 24 takes residents straight to Colorado Springs
Most Falcon residents rely on cars to get around, as this expanding area currently has no public transportation options. Highway 24 offers a 14-mile straight shot to Colorado Springs, which takes roughly a half-hour with no traffic. There, locals can enjoy a buzzing downtown against the backdrop of the breathtaking Southern Rocky Mountains. Locals can enjoy comfort, space and a slower pace in Falcon.

GreatSchools:
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.
