Master Planned Neighborhoods Leave Nothing to Chance You’ve seen them. Sometimes there is a grand entry with a sentry-like gate, a shack, and sometimes even a live person checking on every car trying to get in. Tall walls contain houses that look similar but lend an air of well-thought-out, well cared-for uniformity. There’s a name for them: master planned communities, or MPCs. While they have been around for decades in the western half of the U.S., they are everywhere now — a growing trend in new construction where developers aim to offer home buyers nearly everything they might desire: grocery stores, restaurants, hiking and biking trails, a gym, swimming pool, golf course, and more—within walking distance or a short drive. Some of the more robustly planned MPCs offer calendar-friendly activities: kids’ story time, stroller workouts, sing-a-longs, magic shows, and maybe even a petting zoo. Parents and singles are treated to social mixers and moms’ and dads’ nights out. All of this comes at a cost of a few thousand dollars a year in homeowners association fees. Realtor.com’s Kimberly Dawn Neumann explains how, with so much to do nearby and little reason to venture outside their immediate environs, residents have an easily accessible way to meet people. Some of the larger MPCs have their own elementary, middle, and high schools—all within a 10-minute drive or bus ride. For some, this reminds them of when they were kids — when all their friends lived nearby and they all went to the same school. Which is why those residents bought there to begin with — to offer their own children that sense of belonging. After that? Perhaps they’ll move to an MPC retirement community with pickleball courts and a golf course. Reach out for more! Realtor, TBWS
