Forrest Lake is more like a neighborhood than a typical townhome community in that homes are spaced out and have streets in front of many of the units.

History

Forrest Lake was so named because it had previously been a small dairy farm owned or operated by a Mr Forrest. The lake may have started off as a farm tank but the developer (Irby Simkins) may have enlarged it and certainly landscaped it well. In those early days after the developer had departed, Forrest Lake had problems with water ingress from the lake.

Education

Primary and secondary education

Public schools

Forrest Lake's public schools are operated by Aldine Independent School District.

gollark: Do we need all these channels?!!??
gollark: They might be. You're only seeing the best/most important people around on Earth, who are more likely than average to have bloodlines.
gollark: It would be interesting to know exactly why the "system" is way more concerned with human-recognizable things than our laws of physics, and also why basically everyone is humanlike mentally despite entirely different evolutionary paths. Unfortunately, all the fictional things I know in this sort of setting just handwave it.
gollark: Ideally, pylon-of-civilization-hunting von Neumann machines, but those might not be practical yet.
gollark: The obvious solution to this """voting"" is to send really fast people out to gather all pylons of civilization and move them to a central base.
