Impact on the environment is minimised by reducing pollution and noise, conserving resources, preserving the landscape, and encouraging native plants. The community features varied shrubs and trees in the streetscapes and open spaces, creating a natural feel, minimising the need for watering and attracting local birdlife.

Walking and cycling are encouraged, reducing noise, emissions and energy requirements of the residents.
