COMMUNITY INTRODUCTION

It was not long ago that Homer Township was regarded as a small, rural community. Still recognized for its open green spaces, sprawling nature preserves, pictureperfect farmland and overall rural character, the community is now making strides in the incorporation of wellmanaged housing and commercial development, placing it among one of the upcoming places for businesses and residential living.

Economic interests and a superior standard of living are finely balanced here, due to the effective collaboration between the Township’s governing body and its citizens. New, high-quality business developments are springing up throughout the Township’s high-traffic sectors so as not to jeopardize the ambiance of the community’s residential areas, which have remained remarkable in quality and affable in nature— characteristics that current residents and prospective buyers look for in superb suburban living. There is nowhere to go but forward for Homer Township, and it is ready to take on the future with all the stops out.
