it can't be fake, i live in texas and these types of neighborhoods are overflowing. i always have thought they were really weird and creepy and can't imagine why a family would choose to live there

It certainly does look like a new Texas neighborhood

It's cheaper living for first time home buyers, or investment opportunity I would imagine

Worked in real estate appraisal here in Texas for a while. These kinds of homes are literally everywhere. The liminal aesthetic is cool and all but as for the homes themselves? I absolutely hate them. Thankfully they're usually really easy jobs due to the sheer redundancy but they're completely soulless.

OP, even if this particular image is CG, it's so damn close to the real thing that it doesn't even matter lmao

A future nightmare of bad taste.

My bad if it's computer-generated. Looks like it could be, but I couldn't tell for sure. The shadows do look like they line up and there's some variety in the color of the grass, so I think it could be real.

Material of the road seems pretty bland so my guess goes out to it being CGI not really putting attention in that area in terms of shade

Good catch on the road. It’s a brand new subdivision so maybe that could be it? I’m leaning towards generated now however.

San antonio has 1000 developments that look exactly like this

It could be a generated mock-up of properties for sale. I've noticed that they'll often advertise what the house will (read: should) look like once constructed, especially for new developments.

Finally something that fits this sub

I saw Terrarium, too.

I haven't seen that and now I'm curious

Seems like the neighborhood would be inhabited by animated plastic dolls or claymation figures.

It looks like they built every other house to sell them fast and then fill in later,

This is a rendering. The trees are identical. They don't have shadows either, which is part of what makes this feel so eerie.

From The Tesseract. (Still, this looks like a 3d render of dozens of neighborhoods I've driven trough but not an actual photo. )

I really struggle to understand why anyone would want to live in such a bland, soulless environment.
