Southwest Ranches Florida is a town just west of I-75 positioned near the Florida Everglades on the east. The lifestyle in this town is quite different when it comes to liviing in South Florida, placing strong emphasis on a semi-rural lifestyle that's reinforced by the presence of horse ranches that comprise part of the appeal of Southwest Ranches real estate. Keeping that in mind, it's quite common to find lush greenways as you explore the affluent town. The lots that make up Southwest Ranches homes for sale usually have a minimum of one acre thanks to laws that prohibit anything smaller. There is actually a considerable lack of streetlights and sidewalks that also manage to boost the rural ambiance that has made Southwest Ranches real estate highly appealing.
