What Is It Like to Live in Westlake, FL?
Westlake is a rapidly growing master-planned city developed by Minto Communities in western Palm Beach County. With approximately 6,700 residents and median home values of $696K to $699K, it offers modern homes with resort-style amenities.
Westlake is one of the newest and fastest-growing communities in Palm Beach County. The city was designed by Minto Communities with a focus on resort-style living: a large Aquatics Center with a lagoon pool and slide tower, adventure playgrounds, a dog park, event lawns, and a concert pavilion. The emerging Town Center is designed as a mixed-use social hub.
For homebuyers, Westlake offers brand-new construction with community amenities included in the HOA. The homes are modern, energy-efficient, and designed for the South Florida lifestyle. The trade-off is the western location — the beach is a 40+ minute drive — but the community amenities and home quality are major draws.
