Nature-Based Apartment Community Names

Nature-Based Apartment Community Names

It never ceases to amaze me how many apartment communities have a nature-based name, such as "Stone Crossing", "The Falls at XYZ", or "Pine Trails Apartments". At the same time, I find that many of these same communities have paid very little attention to the landscape architecture at their community. Seems like a big disconnect there...

Are there actual studies out there that shows prospects' preferences for nature-based names, or is it one of those situations of "that's always how we've done it"?

(I've also put up a poll to see how many communities actually do have nature-based names.)

Poll Results: Of our small sample group, here were the results of whether their community had a nature-based name:

Yes 53.3%
No 46.7%

There were actually fewer nature-based names than I thought, but 46.7% is still very high. Makes me wonder if their entire community's "concept" matches the name, or if it was just used because that's what is expected?
