The Oakland Park Community Difference

Oakland Park was created to be a one of a kind community concept. The dream and vision was that it would be an actual front porch neighborhood. Meaning, residence embrace their front porch as a means to form intentional connections and relationships with their neighbors. Oakland Park was envisioned as a place where people can slow down when they are at home and make memories with their loved ones.

Another aspect that really sets Oakland Park apart from other neighborhood communities is its location, architecture, and Florida lifestyle. As you make your way through Oakland Park you’re surrounded by majestic Oak trees and shady porches where residents sip tea (and other things.) You’ll get more than just a home if you move to Oakland Park, you’ll get an entire lifestyle.
