Living here
Westlake was designed from the ground up with neighborhoods, parks, trails, and commercial areas. Its rapid growth is reflected in Census estimates, which show the population rising from 906 in 2020 to an estimated 9,042 in 2025.
Westlake is along Seminole Pratt Whitney Road, between Southern Boulevard and Northlake Boulevard, with Wellington and Royal Palm Beach shopping nearby.
Public schools serving Westlake are part of the School District of Palm Beach County, and the area is also served by private schools.

Homes
Most homes are new construction, including single-family homes and townhomes from several builders. Buyers should compare builder incentives, HOA and community development district (CDD) fees, and warranty terms.
Before you buy
Review the HOA, condominium, or club documents, budget, and fees carefully before you make an offer, and ask whether any special assessments are planned. If you are buying a condominium, ask for recent milestone inspection reports and the structural integrity reserve study, which Florida law requires for many condominium buildings three stories or taller, since they can affect future assessments.
Look up the property's flood zone on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center and get homeowners and flood insurance quotes early. Insurance can significantly affect your monthly cost, and a lender may require flood insurance depending on the zone.
Ask the seller for the roof's age and a wind mitigation inspection report. Florida requires insurers to offer discounts for qualifying wind-resistant features, such as impact-rated windows or shutters and stronger roof attachments, so these features can lower your premium. You can look up the property's hurricane evacuation zone through Palm Beach County Emergency Management.
If the home will be your primary residence, apply for Florida's homestead exemption with the Palm Beach County Property Appraiser, generally by March 1 of the year after you purchase. Once a home is homesteaded, Florida's Save Our Homes provision limits yearly increases in its assessed value to 3% or the change in the Consumer Price Index, whichever is lower.
