Prairie
From established ranch-style homes to contemporary townhomes
Most of the neighborhood is taken up by non-HOA Florida ranch-style homes with driveways and spacious yards. They sit just off walkable streets dotted by palm trees. Prices range from the mid-$400,000s to the high $500,000s, which is standard for this area. Recently built multi-level townhomes in the gated subdivision of Preston Square feature attached garages and recreational amenities such as a community pool. They highlight several alternative residential options. “The newer construction is generally more expensive because of the contemporary additions,” says Rhansley Sanchez, a real estate agent with CGI Realty who serves Palm Beach County, “but the older homes are still good; they’re just a little outdated.” Lakewood of Palm Springs offers established townhouses with enclosed courtyards. Smaller condos also can be found. Multi-family pricing ranges from the mid-$100,000s to the mid-$400,000s. HOA fees range from $220 to $661 a month. Flooding is not a concern, but residents should be aware that insurance rates can be affected by the risk of wind damage, especially during hurricane season.Publix anchors the neighborhood's Greenwood Shopping Center
The Greenwood Shopping Center, anchored by a Publix, is in the neighborhood. Just outside it is a Walmart Supercenter. “A lot of your basic necessities are close by,” Sanchez says. “Literally anything you need is right there or just a short drive away.” Dining options are concentrated along the Congress Avenue corridor, which forms the neighborhood’s western edge. La Cosinita Latina receives rave reviews for its Puerto Rican food. Downtown Lake Worth Beach features a collection of boutique shops, restaurants and bars less than 4 miles from the neighborhood.Lake Worth Beach Park is among the nearby oceanfront attractions
Frost Lake Park is a nearby residential green space offering a relaxed waterfront setting with a fishing pier. Northwest Park features several athletic fields that host youth sports competitions. Lake Worth Beach Park is a popular destination on the Atlantic oceanfront. Its famous fishing pier is a hot spot for watching the sunrise. Another coastal attraction is the Palm Beach Par-3 Golf Course, which offers 18 holes laid out between the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic.G-Star School for the Arts is in the neighborhood
The neighborhood is home to G-Star High School for the Arts. The public charter school, which serves students in sixth through 12th grades, is rated B-plus by Niche. It offers the International Baccalaureate and Cambridge International programs. Younger students can attend Meadow Park Elementary, which is rated A-minus. Conniston Middle School and Forest Hill Community School, both rated B-minus, are other options.Quick access to HCA Florida JFK Hospital, Palm Beach International Airport
Buses that run along Congress Avenue provide public transportation for work commutes and trips to notable local destinations, including Downtown Lake Worth Beach and the city’s waterfront. Just minutes away is Interstate 95, which provides direct access to Palm Beach International Airport about 5 miles from the neighborhood. HCA Florida JFK Hospital is only 3 miles away. “The neighborhood is kind of hidden,” Sanchez says. “It’s a little sanctuary in the middle of the city.”
