Ranch-style homes and split levels
To the neighborhood's east, homes cluster in cul-de-sacs around the park, whereas homes to the west are laid out in a grid. The streets are broad, with plenty of room for parking, but most residents have attached garages and driveways. Ranch-style homes dominate the landscape. “Most of the homes were built in the late 70s, and early 80’s, so it’s a lot of ranches. There are some split levels, but you're not going to see many two-stories,” says Cousins. Prices range from $180,000 to $380,000 on average.

The park also features a pavilion and barbeque pit. Bordering the neighborhood to the east is Erlandson Park, with sprawling athletics fields, a playground and picnic spots.
