About Highlands Ranch

Highlands Ranch is a community of approximately 105,000 residents in Douglas County County, CO. This close-knit community values compassionate, local service providers who understand the bond between families and their pets.

One of the largest master-planned communities in the U.S., developed from the 1980s through 2010s with age-diverse housing stock.

Single-family homes from 1,400 to 4,500 sq ft with basements, plus townhomes and condos in higher-density village centers.

Local Considerations

  • Older 1980s-era homes in the eastern sections face aging roofing and siding issues exacerbated by Colorado hailstorms.
  • Expansive clay soils throughout Douglas County cause foundation heaving and cracking, particularly after wet-dry cycles.
