Fairlawn
Modernizing the mid-century homes
The single-family homes in Fairlawn are not part of a homeowners association, so no strict guidelines need to be followed when updates are made. “They’re being renovated with fresh interiors, new appliances and, sometimes, circular driveways, to give them more of a contemporary look,” Fields says. The two to four-bedroom homes sell for between $400,000 and $625,000 and are ranch-style, but there are also a few Key West-style homes. Condominiums were built in the 1970s and are priced between $225,000 and $375,000. The price is in addition to the monthly fees that must be paid for access to amenities like community pools, fitness centers and tennis and shuffleboard courts.

Multiple neighborhood parks
At the corner of 3rd Avenue and 4th Place is a small pocket park that has fit plenty of activities into that small space. Cornerstone Park has a swing set, a shaded climbing wall and a small picnic area. Further south, there’s plenty of grassy lawn to throw a frisbee or kick a ball around at Highlands Park. It has a covered playground with climbing equipment and slides, a picnic pavilion, a basketball court and a 2,400-square-foot community center that provides after-school programs and adult classes for the neighborhood.

Retail convenience
The Rivertowne Square Shopping Center at the corner of Federal Highway and 10th Street has a Winn-Dixie for household essentials. Just down the way is the popular Beall’s clothing store. A Target that includes a CVS is across the street. Federal Highway is loaded with businesses and restaurants, including the Dandee Donut Factory, with over 50 varieties of the tempting pastry. They serve traditional breakfast all day, and they’re open 24 hours. Kosta’s Greek Eatery and Pizzeria is family-owned and specializes in thin crust, crispy pizza and gyros.

Good walkability within the neighborhood
Sidewalks are commonplace in Fairlawn, with many neighborhood streets having them on both sides. Dixie Highway to the west and Federal Highway to the east are major north/south roads with multiple bus stops for the Broward County Transit lines. The Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood International Airport is 21 miles south, and the Deerfield Beach Tri-Rail station is less than 5 miles away.

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.
