It's Great to be a Kid in Wildlight

The Wildlight community was built on the foundation of family and community-connectedness.

 Wildlight living means enjoying ice cream with the kids at Coldstone Creamery, splashing the day away in the Florida sunshine, or seeing the joy in your child’s face as they meet Santa for the first time. These little moments of each day add up to a life well-lived. 

Wildlight boasts A-rated schools, activities for children of all ages, plenty of community opportunities to create memories, and beautiful homes for your family.
