Bucking the trend of conventional, sprawling developments, Village of Ponderosa embraces the concept of smart growth. The 95-acre development contains just over 500 homes that range in both style and price. Village of Ponderosa also includes a sophisticated mix of stores, restaurants, services and office facilities. This plan replaces vehicle-oriented suburban living with proximity and convenience, so every home is within walking distance of parks, plazas, offices and shops.
