The neat streets of Sterling Hills
Homes in the neighborhood can be found in the form of farmhouses, craftsman-style homes, traditional builds, townhouses and condominiums. The houses here sit directly next to each other on quarter-acre lots, with modest grass squares for front and back yards. Residences are built with brick, vinyl and stone; some have front porches with columns. The current wave of development took place in the early 2000s.

Sidewalks also line the streets here, enhancing the sense of community. Those looking to purchase a home in Sterling Hills can expect a price range from $275,000 for a two-bedroom condo to $665,000 for larger five-bedroom houses.

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.

The neighborhood is nice overall, as well as most of the people. There are just some people in this neighborhood that ruin the "niceness" of the area. For example, some leave garbage on other people's lawns, one person revs their car engine at 10 o'clock at night constantly, and a few others blast loud music past the quiet hours. Other than that, it is a clean and comfortable area.
