Suburban ease in Palm Beach County
Park Ridge may get its name from a local golf course, but what homebuyers are most interested in are its schools. The neighborhood lies on the edge of rural western Palm Beach County, deep in the suburbs where most streets are sidewalk-lined, quiet until school lets out for the day. Students are zoned for excellent elementary and middle schools, as well as the county’s newest high school, Dr. Joaquín García High, which is right in the heart of the community. While Park Ridge’s earliest homes date back to the 1970s, most of the planned subdivisions were developed in the early 2000s. New construction has been a constant since, steadily transitioning the area away from its rural roots. According to Realtor Jann Flowers with Realty Home Advisors, this is thanks in part to infrastructural changes. “Since they widened Lyons Road, Park Ridge has really seemed less remote. Its main road isn’t a rural backroad anymore.” Convenient commercial developments were built around it, which coupled with the community’s location directly off Florida’s Turnpike to ease day-to-day routines.
From midcentury ranches to new-construction townhouses
Most homes in Park Ridge are Contemporary Spanish Revivals and New Traditional houses. HOAs are mandatory, excluding a pocket of midcentury ranch-style homes off Lyons Road. Three-bedroom residences list from the mid $400,000s to the high $800,000s. Four- and five-bedroom properties range from around $700,000 to $1.5 million. Depending on the subdivision, lots can be less than 5,000 square feet or more than an acre. “Those larger lots are becoming more rare in this part of South Florida,” Flowers says. Front yards are manicured, and many backyards have lakeside views. Two-car garages and driveways are standard in the planned subdivisions, most of which are gated. New construction townhouses are in the community as well, ranging from the mid $500,000s to the high $700,000s.

Park Ridge Golf Course
The wide open fairways at Park Ridge Golf Course allow locals to take in the scenery as they navigate the greens and a multitude of elevation changes, some climbing higher than 85 feet. The uniquely mountainous course has 18 holes and was originally developed in the early 2000s. Part of that development involved revitalizing a retired landfill. Today, the course is Audubon-certified, so while golfers appreciate a beautiful and lush backdrop, local wildlife enjoy a healthy habitat.
Park Ridge golf offers elevation changes like nowhere else in the area.

Grocery stores galore
A grocery store is never too far away in Park Ridge. Walmart, Target and Aldi sit right on the neighborhood’s fringes. Additionally, Whole Foods and Trader Joe’s are less than 5 miles up U.S. 441. “All the new developments that are going in around here are connected by 441,” Flowers says. “It’s putting the area on the map.” These new developments include fast-food favorites like Wendy’s and KFC, as well as locally owned restaurants. Delicias Cuban Bakery has been family-owned and operated since it opened in 2003. The neighborhood staple has grown with the community, selling fresh Latin specialties, from savory empanadas to sweet guava-and-cheese-filled pastelitos (pastries).
