Sep 06, 2024
Arlington, Texas, has steadily become a beacon of growth and prosperity, attracting families and professionals alike with its vibrant culture, excellent schools, and prime location. At the heart of this flourishing city lies Viridian, a master planned community that has recently been recognized as the third wealthiest zip code in North Texas by the Dallas Business Journal. This accolade is more than just a reflection of the affluence of its residents; it’s a testament to the thoughtful planning, dedication, and strong community bonds that define Viridian.
As we celebrate this milestone, we extend our deepest gratitude to the City and County for placing their trust in us to develop such an impactful project. Today, Viridian is not just a place to live—it’s a place to thrive, with more than 6,500 residents who proudly call it home.
The Vision Behind Viridian’s Success
From the very beginning, Viridian was envisioned as more than just a residential area. It was designed to be a community where people could connect with nature, neighbors, and themselves. The master plan includes over 1,200 acres of wetlands, open space, and lakes, offering residents unparalleled access to the beauty of the natural world. This commitment to green spaces while fostering a close-knit community has made Viridian the “hot hood” that it is today.
Viridian’s architectural design also plays a crucial role in its appeal. New homes in Viridian are crafted with attention to detail, blending modern luxury with timeless elegance. The variety of home styles and price points ensures that there’s something for everyone, whether you’re a young family looking to grow, a professional seeking a serene retreat, or retirees wanting to enjoy the fruits of your hard work in a peaceful setting.
