Babcock Ranch

Charlotte County, Florida

The first solar-powered town in America, Babcock Ranch is thoughtfully designed to help residents live their healthiest, happiest life. It features over 50 miles of trails through preserved and restored ecosystems, and half the town’s total footprint is dedicated to greenways, parks and lakes. More than 90% of development is on previously impacted pasture, farm and rock-mined land. Through a partnership with Florida Power & Light, Babcock Ranch’s state-of-the-art solar facilities supply the town and the broader region with clean, renewable power.

Babcock Ranch offers its residents over 15 unique neighborhoods of single-family estates, townhomes and villas, plus everything from healthcare to coworking spaces to shopping and dining. The entire town is outfitted with fiber-optic internet, and an emphasis on innovation and technology has made it the ideal place for sustainability-minded companies to call home.
