Estrella Village
Neighborhood Reviews
A blend of architectural styles can be found along the winding roads
Long, winding roads dotted with homes lend each subdivision a sparse feeling. Architectural styles range from classic ranchers and bungalows to newer builds and Santa Barbara Tuscan homes. Apartment buildings can also be found throughout the community. Homes on the southwestern end of Estrella Village are primarily new builds in the Alamar master-planned community. Along with a variety of home styles, this community features Alamar Park, a sprawling 40 acres with walking trails, a splash pad, a fishing lake and athletic fields.

Niche Review
HOA fee increases are terrible. The neighborhood has been stagnant after the market crash in 2006. Business development is poor and shopping is over 10 miles away. They are having a difficult time with the budget as evident with, bad landscaping, weeds, and relentless fee increases. Police concentrate their time on speeding tickets while houses are being robbed.
