South Florida suburb with stunning natural scenery
The outstretched branches of decades-old banyan trees line the entrance to Forest Ridge, escorting visitors into the sprawling suburban community. Short cul-de-sac streets jut into a central lake, providing most homeowners with water views. “Forest Ridge isn’t gated, but you still get that sense of privacy from the scenic drive in,” a Realtor with Cardinal Realty Group LLC. South Florida’s Pine Island Ridge nature preserve hugs the community’s west side, filled with more of the native trees dripping with ferns and moss. “It’s calming,” Supraski says. “The greenery just washes over you.”

Single-family homes with Mediterranean influence
Forest Ridge is full of highly sought-after single-family abodes. Most were built in the 1980s and 1990s in the Mediterranean style, with barrel-tiled roofs and stucco walls in warm palettes. Attached garages come standard here, and it’s common to see hand-laid driveways, private pools and manicured yards throughout. Many homes face the lakefront, where residents can boat, canoe and kayak right from their backyards. Only a handful of homes are available at any one time, starting around $500,000 and reaching over $1 million. Modest properties that might need a cosmetic refresh sell at the low end of the market, while spacious spots with updated interiors and outdoor living spaces can go for almost three times more.

Marshland hikes and golfing with gophers
When they’re not floating in their private pools, Forest Ridge homeowners hit the tennis and pickleball courts or head for the trails at the nature preserves and parks next door. Each outdoor getaway seamlessly runs into the next, keeping creature comforts like playgrounds and picnic areas close to every doorstep. Westridge Park is to the north, with wide open fields, paved pathways and an owl habitat. To the south, the lush landscapes spill into the marshlands at Tree Tops Park, hosting visitors for horseback riding and fishing. The Bamford Sports Complex is the go-to for indoor activities at the aquatic and fitness centers. Golfing is big in this South Florida area, with courses surrounding the neighborhood on all sides. Grande Oaks Golf Club is steps away, a private facility that famously set the stage for the 1979 flick Caddyshack.
Golfers in Forest Ridge can enjoy the multiple public courses in the area.

Western High kids prepare for higher learning
“Families move here specifically for the schools,” Supraski says. Kids living in Forest Ridge can start at the walkable Silver Ridge Elementary and continue to Indian Ridge Middle before earning their diplomas at Western High, known for consistently high enrollment numbers in advanced placement courses. Each neighborhood school carries a B-plus score or higher from Niche and is within a 15-minute drive for most Forest Ridge families. Buyers interested in education alternatives will also find a wide selection of private and charter options nearby.

Celebrate the seasons outdoors with events like Fun on the 4th
“It’s a neighborhood where kids still ride their bikes on the street, and neighbors say hello to each other,” Supraski says. The Forest Ridge community comes together for seasonal events at its many walkable green spaces throughout the year. Food trucks, live music and fireworks draw crowds to Fun on the 4th, and The Haunt opens up each October, hosting family-friendly activities during the day and gorier gatherings after the sun sets. Casual get-togethers, like birthday parties, take place outdoors year-round.“It really is a charming place to live,” Supraski says.
Commercial hot spots line South University Drive
With so many green assets, it’s important not to lose sight that Forest Ridge is also convenient for shopping, dining and everyday conveniences. A whole host of commercial hot spots like The Fountains and Broward Mall are within a 5-mile ride away, lining the busy South University Drive. A little closer to home, locals can shop at Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s and Costco at the busy Tower Shops retail strip. Publix is even closer, neighboring a set of movie theaters and more restaurant choices, including neighborhood favorite, Zabb Thai and Sushi.

Interstate 595 runs across the north side of town, routing drivers toward Hollywood and Fort Lauderdale for work and play. Most Forest Ridge residents are drivers, but Broward County Transit (BCT) buses make stops along South University Drive for those who prefer public transportation. The Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport is roughly 10 miles east for long-distance travel.
