Rancho Calera

Residential

Rancho Calera is planned as a community of up to 2,042 residential units within the 561-acre planning area. The residential areas are composed of multiple residential neighborhoods of varying lot sizes, mixed with numerous recreational amenities. An elementary school and the minor community park are located near the center of the community to provide good accessibility.

The neighborhoods will be identifiable as distinct residential areas with their own individual character. Many neighborhoods will have parks that add identity and activity areas for the residents.

The neighborhoods will provide a mix of lot types that will accommodate a wide range of housing objectives, buyer needs, and income levels. The residential neighborhoods will consist of a variety of single-family housing types and multifamily attached homes. These neighborhoods will be linked to the minor community park, the Rancho Calera Riverwalk, and other parks by a network of bike routes, pedestrian sidewalks, and promenades.

Additional residential units are planned for a high-density area and the commercial/residential mixed-use overlay area in the service commercial area. The high-density housing in these areas may consist of apartments, townhomes, and condominiums.
