Suburban Dwellers Eye “Conservation Communities” for Next Purchase

A recent survey by RCLCO found that only 50 percent of people who live in a conventional suburban neighborhood are likely to choose this type of neighborhood in their next home purchase. Surprisingly, the majority say they prefer conservation communities--essentially a golf course community without the golf course. Get tips on how to design, build, market, and maintain this type of neighborhood from ULI’s new book, Conservation Communities: Creating Value with Nature, Open Space and Agriculture. The book also provides case studies of successful projects to show how to create value using nature, open space, and agriculture as primary amenities.
