San Antonio, just north of Wesley Chapel, is set to experience significant growth with the development of a new community at State Road 52 and I-75. The community, named Palmetto Ridge, will span 1,088 acres and feature 2,500 homes. Located two exits north of Wesley Chapel, Palmetto Ridge will be positioned on SR 52 west of I-75.

In addition to residential homes, the development will include 8 acres of retail space, a 42-acre site for a future school, and various community amenities. These amenities will include partially gated areas and a range of CDD and HOA features. Part of Palmetto Ridge will be age-targeted, though not age-restricted, making it a premier community with quick access to I-75.

While this development promises modern amenities and convenient access to major roadways, some residents express concern about the rapid development of Eastern Pasco’s remaining rural areas.
