Waterfront lifestyle with lakes, canals and river access
Waterfront living is on the table in Progress Village, bordered by the Alafia River and containing various lakes and canals. Shopping, dining, entertainment and nautical activities are all a part of life here. There are a few different subdivisions in the area, some of them being Community Development Districts (CDDs). Florida is the third most populous state in the country, and the need for more infrastructure and large-scale developments to support the state's growth has led to the more common use of CDDs.

CDD neighborhoods offer amenities and long-term infrastructure
A CDD is a special-purpose governmental component designed to serve the long-term specific needs of a community through planning, financing, constructing, operating and maintaining community-wide infrastructure and amenities for its residents. Living in a community with a CDD usually comes with luxury amenities and community-sponsored events. A part of the CDD fees residents pay is repayment of Municipal Bonds, which is usually paid off in about 30 years. The other part of the fee covers operation and management fees and county taxes. In a community with both a Homeowner's Association (HOA) and CDD, the HOA is responsible for enforcing deed restrictions and neighborhood conditions. At the same time, the CDD handles general maintenance, amenities and infrastructure. The Oak Creek and Magnolia Park subdivisions are both CDDs. Progress Village is home to townhomes with pond views, attached garages, community pools, clubhouses and guarded gates. Homebuyers will also find ranch-style, midcentury modern, Colonial Revival, Spanish Revival homes and contemporary new builds. Home prices range widely in the area, with ranch-style homes starting at $70,000 and large Colonial-revival homes going for as high as $2.5 million.

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.
