Pine Ridge at Martin Downs is a gated condominium community located within the larger Martin Downs Planned Unit Development in Palm City, Florida 34990. As a sub-association, it falls under the oversight of the Martin Downs Property Owners Association (MDPOA), which manages the master PUD established in 1980.
HOA Fees and Financial Obligations HOA fees for Pine Ridge condos typically range from $300 to $500 per month, varying by unit size and location. These fees generally cover cable TV, building insurance, ground maintenance, security, and trash collection.

Rules and Regulations The community is gated with controlled access. Standard condo rules apply, including potential restrictions on pets (no pets noted in some listings), rental approvals, and architectural modifications requiring HOA consent. All properties are subject to MDPOA covenants, which cannot be withdrawn due to the PUD agreement with Martin County and South Florida Water Management District requirements for stormwater management and security.

The condo association maintains common grounds, while the master association oversees broader infrastructure like roads, trails, and parks within the 2,600-acre development serving about 10,000 residents.
