Solomon Hills is a visionary 1,900-acre master-planned community in northern Santa Barbara County, designed to model sustainable urbanism and responsible growth. Located near key job centers, it will offer 4,000 homes and space for businesses, creating up to 2,000 new jobs by 2050. Two-thirds of the site is dedicated to parks, trails, and conservation. The community blends eco-conscious design with innovative technologies—solar, wind, geothermal, green roofs, and water harvesting—striving for carbon neutrality. Anchored by a vibrant village core with major amenities, Solomon Hills reimagines a former oil site into a dynamic, net-zero community that honors the past while shaping a resilient future.
