THIS IS THE PLACE

Where you can plant roots and grow wings

Ladera Ranch was founded in 1999 on one singular ideal — to create a community that enables residents to give their families and children roots and wings.

As a result, we have created an environment that offers the charm and safety of a small town. One where neighbors wave and smile, meet in the cul-de-sacs for evening conversations, and where exclusive community events offer unique experiences and memories to last a lifetime.

This mindset is why families are attracted to our community and everything it offers. From our pet-friendly parks to our close-knit clubs, groups, and programs, Ladera Ranch is a community that proves we are better together. It’s a place where one can be playful and feel young. It’s a place where one can rejuvenate and recharge. Most importantly, it’s a place that feels like home.
