Raton Florida and you want to know the
[3]
best neighborhoods here well I'm gonna
give you 17 of the best neighborhoods to
[7]
live in Boca Raton so stay tuned what's
up everyone its tanner and it's so good
[15]
to be back with another video but if
this is your first time to the channel
[18]
I'm doing so many videos about what it's
like to eat live work sleep and play
[22]
right here in South Florida so if you
want to know everything there is to know
[25]
about Fort Lauderdale and the
surrounding areas like Boca Raton go
[28]
ahead and hit that subscribe button and
tap the little Bell so you get notified
[31]
every time I do a new video okay so I'm
sure you're doing a ton of research
[35]
about moving here to South Florida and
maybe even Boca Raton specifically so if
[39]
you've seen my other video up here about
the pros and cons of living in Boca you
[43]
probably already know that there are a
lot of gated and Golf communities here
[47]
and yes it is a wonderful thing but what
typically comes along with that our HOA
[51]
fees and for those of you that aren't
familiar with them HOA stands for
[55]
homeowners association so everyone
inside these communities are required to
[59]
pay a fee to help them maintain the
common areas or the amenities of the
[63]
neighborhood which could include
anything from lawn care and landscaping
[66]
to the swimming pool clubhouse Golf
Course tennis courts playgrounds you get
[71]
the idea now as great as all these
amenities are you have to decide if it's
[75]
worth hundreds or even thousands of
dollars in extra charges every month and
[79]
to some people it's well worth spending
that extra money but I do have people
[83]
reaching out to me every day with
questions about moving to Boca Raton and
[87]
a lot of them are just looking for a
nice community that's safe with good
[91]
schools and would rather not have to pay
those expensive HOAs every month and
[96]
that's exactly why I put together this
list of 17 of the best neighborhoods in
[100]
Boca that don't have HOA fees and
speaking of people reaching out all my
[104]
contact info is down in the description
and I'd love to talk to you and answer
[108]
any questions you have about moving here
to South Florida so I think it's
[112]
important to note that this list is in
no particular order and I'll be
[115]
including neighborhoods with homes that
range from affordable price points all
[119]
the way to ones where the home prices
can exceed several million dollars so
[123]
make sure you stick around for all 17
because your perfect neighborhood just
[126]
might be on this list number one on our
list is Boca Raton square located in
[131]
East Boca it's one of the pioneer
in communities here and the neighborhood
[134]
was developed in the 1960s and 70s homes
in Boca ratone square are gonna be
[139]
mostly three and four-bedroom ranch
style houses on quarter acre lots and
[143]
it's located about ten minutes from the
beach so a lot of these homes also have
[147]
pools and if you have children or maybe
you're planning on having some in the
[151]
future the neighborhood is zoned for
some of the best public schools in South
[154]
Florida including Addison Meisner
Elementary which has a 10 out of 10
[158]
rating so the big question is what's all
this gonna cost well Boca Raton square
[162]
is surprisingly affordable with current
home prices starting at $400,000 moving
[167]
on our next neighborhood with no HOA is
Palm Beach farms also located in East
[172]
Boca just south of Boca square Palm
Beach Farms is a beautiful neighborhood
[175]
with tree-lined streets and for the most
part the homes are gonna be larger than
[179]
those in Boca ratone Square and it's
perceived as being a little bit more
[183]
upscale than its neighbor so most homes
for sale are gonna be in the price range
[187]
of the mid 500 thousands to just over
$800,000 but there are some waterfront
[192]
homes in Palm Beach farms as well and
they're situated right along the
[195]
Hillsborough canal which will offer you
ocean access right from your backyard
[198]
and the homes along that street are
going to be priced accordingly many of
[202]
them into the multi-millions of dollars
so our next neighborhood is Royal Oak
[207]
Hills located adjacent to Boca raton
square in East Boca the homes here are
[211]
built around the same time frame as Boca
raton Square but sit on larger Lots and
[216]
this community is also perceived to be
slightly more upscale and also several
[220]
homes in Royal Oak Hills are on smaller
canals right off of the more well-known
[224]
Hillsborough Canal but they do have
ocean access but with fixed bridges so
[228]
as long as you don't have a very large
boat yacht or a sailboat you should be
[232]
able to get out to the Atlantic with no
problems number four on the list is Boca
[236]
Harbour a waterfront community in
Northeast Boca Raton this neighborhood
[240]
is located just north of Yamato road in
between federal highway and Ocean
[244]
Boulevard Boca Harbour was established in
the 1950s and 60s but a lot of the
[249]
original homes have been torn down and
replaced with luxury waterfront mansions
[252]
but if you like boating this might be
the perfect location for you because
[256]
homes in both a harbour typically have
between 70 and 90 feet of dock space
[261]
on deepwater canals with no fixed
bridges to the intercostal waterway all
[265]
the way out to the Atlantic
and Boca Harbour homes are gonna range
[269]
from 900,000 to over five million
dollars all right the neighborhood of
[273]
Bel Marra is located adjacent to Boca
Harbor in Northeast Boca Raton and it's
[277]
comprised of luxury waterfront homes as
well and Bel Marra offers similar sized
[281]
waterfront Lots as Boca Harbour and the
homes are just as beautiful as its
[285]
counterpart conference ridge number six
and sticking with what seems to be the
[289]
trend here it's also located in East
Boca Raton and this community was
[293]
established also in the 1950s and 60s
conference Ridge along with Conference
[298]
Lake estates have single level
ranch-style homes many of which include
[302]
swimming pools and fenced in backyards
next we have old Floresta and it's
[307]
actually one of the first neighborhoods
to be developed by Addison Mizner and
[310]
East Boca and now it's designated a
historic district and the old Floresta
[314]
homes offer lush landscaping with canopy
trees and old spanish-style architecture
[318]
and you're gonna find these homes to be
on large lots that are typically over a
[322]
half acre in size and offer privacy and
plenty of room to roam and it's no
[326]
surprise that these homes in old Foresta
are highly sought after and they tend to
[330]
sell quickly when they do become
available in these luxury homes range in
[333]
prices from eight hundred thousand to
two million dollar price point number
[337]
eight is Paradise Palms a single-family
home community located in central Boca
[341]
near the upscale Boca Town Center Mall
now Paradise Palms was developed in the
[345]
1960s and consists of quaint ranch-style
homes many of which have private
[349]
swimming pools and beautiful tropical
landscape yards the homes for sale in
[353]
Paradise Palms range from price in the
mid 400 thousands to 600 thousands and
[358]
typically between 1500 and 2500 square
feet in size next is Golden Harbour and
[363]
it's a waterfront community consisting
of a little less than 200 single-family
[367]
homes and this waterfront neighborhood
is so desirable because of its close
[371]
proximity to the Boca Inlet and all the
activities available in downtown Boca
[375]
which are just about five minutes away
so the homes in Golden Harbour are super
[379]
spacious many of which exceed five
thousand square feet and sit on
[383]
deepwater Lots with direct ocean access
so it's no surprise that Golden Harbour
[387]
attracts avid boaters number 10
Lake Rogers Isle is a highly desirable
[392]
waterfront community located within
walking distance of the beach and many
[396]
of the residents take advantage of the
location by taking a short walk
[399]
down Spanish River Boulevard right to
the beach and Lake Rogers is located in
[403]
East Boca at the corner of federal
highway and Spanish River Boulevard and
[407]
the homes here are on larger Lots with
amazing water views of the intercostal
[411]
waterway and since the streets aren't
very long Lake Rogers homeowners can
[415]
take advantage of these views right from
their own backyards so what's the cost
[419]
of a single-family home within walking
distance to the beach well homes in Lake
[423]
Rogers range in price from around 1.5
million dollars and exceed the five
[428]
million dollar mark number eleven is a
neighborhood called Spanish River land
[432]
and it's a desirable beachside community
located in East Boca just east of the
[437]
intercostal waterway near the Boca Raton
Resort and it's just steps away from the
[441]
beach so several homes in the estates
section are situated directly on the
[445]
intercostal waterway offering
magnificent water views number 12 Mill

located off of st. Andrews Boulevard and

gonna be in the price range of the mid
[465]
500s to just under $800,000 TimberCreek
is number 13 and it's located adjacent
