With an  average  residential  lot  size in  excess of  two acres, rural  Rancho Santa Fe is distinguished by its  open  spaces. Sidewalks  and  street  lights are banned from  residential areas. Winding  driveways lead to  traditionally styled Spanish,  Mediterranean or  Ranch  style homes flanked by  fragrants, citrus and native foilage. Elaborate  landscaping protects the privacy intregral to the Rancho Santa Fe way of life.
