You will find that almost all of the residents here are detached houses. The lots here are generous. Some as big as 20,000 sqft! But the majority are around 9,500 sqft- still pretty big! Homes here are also large, with the average size being 4,000 sqft. Delbrook is definitely a family oriented neighborhood. It is home to a lot of long-term residents- many of which have been here for decades!
