Originally established in the early 1900s around a network of agricultural canals, the community later incorporated to protect its green spaces and farming roots from suburban sprawl. Today, peaceful roads wind past equestrian barns, fruit groves, and custom homesteads. Residents enjoy a slower pace of life where keeping animals and riding horses is part of everyday living, while neighboring Wellington and Royal Palm Beach provide quick access to restaurants, retail, and world-class equestrian venues. It remains a unique country retreat with an easy drive to the coast.
