New homes in Rancho Santa Fe are held to strict standards; owners and builders must comply with a stringent code that dictates that new construction must be of specific Spanish Hacienda or Mediterranean styles, so residents never have to worry that their neighbors will erect something outlandish or incongruent with the sensibility of the community.

Landscaping is prevalent, both in the common areas of downtown and on private properties, helping to even further beautify the neighborhoods and augment the vast sense of luxury and privacy that abounds in the area.

These neighborhoods include the Covenant, Horseman's Valley, Rancho Cielo, The Crosby Estates, and Morgan Run.

Nelson provided some basic plans for a community, but it wasn't until the period of time between the two World Wars that Rancho Santa Fe really started to blossom, particularly after the construction of the Del Mar Racetrack, which opened its gates in 1937.
