Parkland Florida Information

Here is a little information about  Parkland, Florida  (Broward Counties fastest growing city) the city that we love so much.
Hidden away in a Private Parklandish Upscale atmosphere of  Broward Counties Northwest corner...steps away from Coral Springs and The Palm Beach County line lives a city that resides safely and quietly with beautiful trees, scenery and safety..Its a forest town and trees predominate on land formerly owned by large cattle ranchers.

 Parkland's main and only road that runs from one end of  Parkland to the other is called Holmberg Road ..2 lanes one either way and no room for any expansion as they like to keep it with the character we saw in the early years of  Parkland. 35 miles per hour is the speed and is strictly enforced by our local Police with little other crime to go after..
Here's what residents have to say...

"I love Parkland because its so private and upscale and its quite rare to see any hustle and bustle of traffic or commercial vehicles we have grown so used to seeing in our every day life."
"The Schools are the best I've ever known with all Parkland schools rating *A*"
Parents often tell me "Its like sending our kids to private school but not having to pay we love it."
Parkland is the perfect city for a Family friendly lifestyle in a safe, active community.
